The document provides an analysis of the conventions used in a magazine cover and contents page. It discusses elements like the masthead, date line, cover lines, main image, pull quote, and kicker on the cover page. It also analyzes conventions for the contents page such as the banner, masthead, brief headings summarizing content, subheadings, and page numbers. The document notes that not having an editor's letter on the contents page breaks some conventions but allows more space for articles and content.

Masthead: The masthead follows magazine conventions by
being placed at the top of the magazine cover. It is very large
and bold. The white font makes it stand out from the light
blue background therefore it captures the audience attention.
As well as this the ‘d’ in has a green coloured circle instead of
it just being plain making the masthead stand out more
compared to other fonts on the front cover capturing the
audience’s attention more.
Date Line: The date line identifies the different issues of
magazines and the release date of each magazine. This also
shows the time they vary in-between. By having a date line on
each magazine it makes each magazine unique so if other
readers want to talk about their interest in the magazine this
would be a way of doing so.
Cover Lines: The cover line is summaries of the most enticing
features and articles which are inside that magazine. The
cover lines are situated in the third quarter of the magazine as
well as one in the top right hand corner. The cover line makes
the audience more interested and want to read the magazine
more.
Main Image/Splash: The splash is the main image on the front
cover; it takes up the majority of the front cover. It is the first
thing the reader sees when looking at the magazine so it
needs to be interesting and appeal to the target market. The
main image is ‘Justin Bieber’ and as he is quite a big ‘star’ at
the moment he is well known so this would encourage a larger
target audience. Justin Bieber is wearing a great t-shirt, blue
jeans, gold chain and a silver chain bracelet making his ‘cool’
appearance stand out and this image lives up to who Justin
Bieber is making the pull quote link well with this image.

5. •

Pull Quote: The main pull quote is a quote
made by Justin Bieber ‘Everything I do, I do to
be the greatest’ It has been put in a red text
box but the font is white like the masthead
making it stand out more. As the font is
slanted it represents the state of mine Justin
is in and the ‘cool’ lifestyle he lives up to and
who he is making his fans want to be like
him.
Kicker: The kicker is to the left hand page a
bit further down the page which is a story
designed to stand out from the rest of the
page. The kicker should be in a different type
of font to make it stand out more to the
reader.
Headline: The headline is the biggest font
which is related to the main story. ‘Justin
Bieber’ is the headline and is the biggest font
on the front cover with a quote from Justin
going along the top making it clear that the
main article in this issue of the magazine is
about Justin Bieber.

Billboard is published by Tommy Page who
is the Publisher at
Billboard (tommy.page@billboard.com)
Tommy Page joined the Billboard
company in June of 2011 after spending
several years at Warner Bros./Reprise
Records, where he worked as a recording
artist, an A&R executive, and recently as
the Vice President of Top 40 Radio
Promotion.
During his time at Warner Bros./Reprise
Records, Tommy Page helped shape the
careers of many successful artists, such as
Michael Buble and Green Day. He also had
his own No. 1 Billboard Hot 100 hit in
April 1990 with "I'll Be Your Everything"
Billboard is an American music magazine,
headquartered in New York City, New York
and owned by Prometheus Global Media.

7. Ideology –
Message,
Moral Values
• Billboard is a music
magazine focusing on all
different types of music
ranging from rap, indie,
r&b, hip hop, techno,
dance etc.
• Billboard mainly focuses
at artists and music
groups that are
successful now such as
Justin Bieber (main
article in this particular
magazine), Drake,
Beyoncé, Katy Perry and
so on.

8. Audience –
Who’s
reading it?
• Billboard’s target audience
is both relevant to male
and female. However I
would say it is targeted at a
younger generation of male
and female, attracting
more female attention due
to the celebrities they base
the majority of the main
articles on.
• The age range being from
14 to late 20s.
• Billboard is intended for
music professionals so this
could widen the range of
the target audience they
are targeting.

9. Representation –
How is it
represented?
• Justin is wearing a
grey t-shirt with a
gold chain around
his neck. He is
holding onto his
chain looking
directly into the
camera.
• Justin is represented
here as him living up

that he lives up to.

11. Media Language – Codes

Cover Lines: The cover line is summaries of the most enticing
features and articles which are inside that magazine. The
cover lines are situated in the third quarter of the magazine
as well as one in the top right hand corner. The cover line
makes the audience more interested and want to read the
magazine more.
Main Image/Splash: The splash is the main image on the
front cover; it takes up the majority of the front cover. It is the
first thing the reader sees when looking at the magazine so it
needs to be interesting and appeal to the target market. The
main image is of the successful rap star ‘Eminem’. He is
wearing a black vest top with a silver cross necklace around
his neck. Eminem has tattoos up both of his arms and the
position he is standing in with his arms cross making his
appearance stand out and this image lives up to who Eminem
is making the pull quote link well with this image.
Masthead: The masthead follows magazine conventions by
being placed at the top of the magazine cover. It is very large
and bold. The red font makes it stand out from the white
background therefore it captures the audience attention. The
word ‘vibe’ is in big, bold and capitals lettering. The font is
dark yet at the top of each letter going down to a bright red
at the bottom of each letter. The word ‘vibe’ links well with
this rap magazine as vibe meaning the right way of life like the
good side but in a sort of urban way with the target audience
can link to.

12. Banner: The banner is a front page headline which goes across
the full width of the page. The banter here is a rhetorical
question ‘Is 1998 rap’s last classic year?’ It also has famous rap
artists going across the top of the rhetorical question. By
having a rhetorical question it asks the reader a question so
they can feel the magazine is more personal to them.
Brand Identity: The brand identity distinguishes one magazine
or newspaper from another and enables the target audience to
recognize it easily. The brand identity on this particular
magazine is ‘The Real Rap’ The word ‘the’ is going up the left
hand side vertically and the words ‘Real Rap’ is in big, bold,
capital lettering making these two words stand out.
Strapline: The strapline is a headline in smaller font appearing
over main headline. The strapline here is the words ‘Vicodin,
Valium and Methadone’ All of these are types of drugs which
link to Eminem. They are in a light grey font and capital letters
making these words stand out.
Pull Quote: The main pull quote is a quote made by Eminem ‘I
literally almost died’ It had been put in a black font with red
speech marks either side of the quote making it stand out
more. As the quote has been put in black font linking to the
colour vest stop Eminem is wearing.
Headline: The headline is the biggest font which is related to
the main story. ‘Eminem’ is the main headline with ‘comes
clean’ in smaller font underneath. This makes it clear that the
main article in this issue is about Eminem.
Kicker: The kicker is to the left hand page a bit further down
the page which is a story designed to stand out from the rest of
the page. The kicker should be in a different type of font to
make it stand out more to the reader. The kicker here is ‘The
50 Hottest Rap Blogs Ranked’.
Lure: The lure is a small section of a story is printed on the
front page and the full story or interview is advertised as
continuing inside. The lure here is ‘are the roots too black for
jimmy fallon?’ The words ‘The Roots’ are in a red font making
those two words stand out more to the reader.

14. Ideology –

artists, actors and other
entertainers.
• The magazine's target audience
is predominantly young, urban
followers of hip-hop culture.
• Vibe magazine has a larger
online presence than actual
magazines being brought.
• Vibe magazine is a magazine
where it tells the stories and
news of artists that wouldn’t
normally be spoken about as
they aren’t usually well
represented role models.

15. Audience –
Who’s reading
it?
• Vibe’s target audience is both
relevant to male and female.
However I would say it is targeted at
a younger generation of male and
females attracting the attention of
those who are having a tougher
time growing up in society due to
the celebrities they base the
majority of the main articles on.
• The age range being from 14 to late
20s.

16. Representation –

around the hood of the black jumper. Madonna is also
wearing a shiny glove with two fingers on show. She is

19. Pull Quote: The main pull quote is a quote made by
Madonna ‘Stupid Question! Next!’ It had been put in a
white font making the font stand out to the black
background with the red headline.
Kicker: The kicker is to the left hand page a bit further
down the page which is a story designed to stand out
from the rest of the page. The kicker should be in a
different type of font to make it stand out more to the
reader. The kicker here has been put right across the
bottom of the magazine with a light blue background
making it stand out compared to the rest of the fonts
used.
Masthead: The masthead follows magazine
conventions by being placed at the top of the
magazine cover. It is very large and bold. The red
background shape with the big ‘Q’ overlaying it
captures the audience attention. The letter ‘Q’ is in
big, bold and capitals lettering. The font is a white
colour yet as it has a bright red background behind it
this makes it stand out more.
Headline: The headline is the biggest font which is
related to the main story. ‘Madonna’ is the main
headline with pull quote in smaller font underneath.
This makes it clear that the main article in this issue is
about Eminem. ‘Madonna’ is in bright red font
capturing the reader’s attention straight away.
Secondary Image: The secondary image is of another
women in music as that is what the article is about.
But the main image is of Madonna who is a successful

a new technology.
Q was first published by the EMAP media group
in October 1986, setting itself apart from much
of the other music press with monthly
production and higher standards of photography

The target audience for Q Magazine is the

from the age of 30 years old plus who are
interested in current successful artists but
who are of an elder age such as Adele as
well as upcoming artists.
The age range being from 30 to late 40s.
Q magazine gives a comprehensive
coverage of the current music scene for
the elder generation.
Q being sold at the price of £3.90 shows
that only people who work would pay for
this magazine as the younger generation
would rather spend that sort of money on
other things as well as the younger
generation are more likely to find out
music information from social network
websites such as Twitter as well as this the
younger generation have that one artist

Main story – There are two images on this contents page but the main image being of
Adele who the main article is about. Both images are simple images of the artists
‘Adele’ and ‘The Last’. They each have a white box of text overlaying each image with
the page number in red, who they are in black bold font and a caption about them in
a smaller font. This catches the reader’s attention as they are the main stories that
are in the magazine. The main story being about Adele as she is somebody who is
known worldwide for being an amazing singer so she stands out more to the reader.
Masthead- The masthead ‘Q’ has the same font and colour as what is used for the
main front cover of the magazine which catches the reader’s attention which makes
them know what magazine they are reading so they buy it again in the future.
Banner at the top – The banner at the top has been put straight across the top of the
contents page title in black with font overlaying the banner to imply the importance
of the page and to let the reader know what is going on.
Secondary Image – The pictures used on the context page all have a border around
them making them stand out more. But the main image is of Adele who is a successful
current artist. The secondary image being of ‘The Last’ who are not such a well known
artist/artists compared to Adele but may become more successful in the future. If
‘The Last’ was to be the main image on the contents page this may turn readers away
as they may not know who ‘The Last’ are. So by having ‘The Last’ as a secondary
image it encourages the audience to read on more to find out who they actually are.
Date – The date saying the month and year this magazine has been released and the
number issue of the magazine may be important to some of the audience as they may
be collectors of this specific magazine. If they were to talk about this magazine to
other readers this would be a way to identify the magazine making it more unique to
other issues of the magazine.
Subheading – The subheadings are all in different fonts compared to each other. The
subheading ‘Women In Music’ is in capital, italic font making it stand out more and
the fact this part of the magazine is about women giving it a sort of fancy font
compared to the other fonts used for subheading because it is based on women in
music. The subheadings being in different fonts make them the main focus of the
contents to inform the reader of the features which are in the magazine.
Brief Heading/Summary of Content – Gives extra information on what is in the
magazine. These are all in a smaller black font underneath the title for each article.
The page numbers are the most important part on this page as then the reader knows
exactly where they are looking for the information they want to read. This layout also
gives the page numbers more attention as they are in a red font. The audience
automatically know where to look for each article and what each article is about by
looking through the subheadings until they find what article they want. As all the
articles all have a short sentence about what they are about this way the audience
know a bit more about each article before reading it. The audience are then able to
locate the article easily as the page numbers are right next to it in a bold red font
making the page numbers stand out.

music journalism publication
in the UK being published
since March 1952.
• NME focuses on artists that
were successful in the past.
• As NME magazine mainly
focuses on past artists this
opens it up to an older

• Therefore the artists that are
featured appeal to those in
that particular target
audience.

target audience of 16-24
year-olds.
• Mainly males are reading
NME with maybe some
females but more of the male
population in the UK
interested in rock music.
• NME appeals to the elder
male generation more but
some male teenagers as well.
As fathers or other family or
friends would tell the
younger male generation
about rock music.

• Oasis were influenced by
The Beatles, an influence
that was labelled by the
British media as an
"obsession“.

38. DOUBLE
SPREAD
PAGE

39. The title is a quote from
the artist this article is
based on who is Ed
Sheeran. The quote has
been extracted from the
main article about Ed
Sheeran. The font stands
out compared to other
fonts used on this double
spread page. With letters
of different sizes and the
word ‘ginger’ being in red
represents Ed Sheeran as
he has ginger hair. This
type of text is used to
emphasise the state of
mind of Ed Sheeran and his
personality. The quote ‘I’m
bringing ginger back!’
relates to another
successful artist Justin
Timberlake’s song ‘I’m
bring sexy back’ relating
the two artists and how
successful they are.
This is a brief introduction to the article where the
name of the artist ‘Ed Sheeran’ has a red box
around it and Ed Sheeran’s name is written in
capital bold white font. By doing this it stands out
and catches the readers attention insuring they
know the exact name of who this double spread
article is about.
The article is written in a very simple font. The ‘I’ at the beginning of the
article is written in a white, bold font with a red box around it. Making
that particular letter stand out compared to other font used on this
article. That is a convention used to begin an article. The ‘I’ being in the
same font as ‘Ed Sheeran’ name for the brief introduction shows that this
is a personal article that Ed Sheeran has spoken about these topics in this
article.
Ed Sheeran is wearing a simple, plain, Ralph Lauren hoodie with a necklace around his neck. He
is also wearing plain jeans with a red belt as well as a watch and his guitar is placed next to him.
His guitar has an orange paw print on it which stands out on the guitar representing a tiger paw
print and as it is orange (ginger) like Ed Sheeran’s coloured hair. Ed Sheeran has his hands in his
pocket showing his personality that he has a calm personality and just goes with the flow of life.
This position reflects his personality. This image of Ed Sheeran has been taken from a long shot
as the background of London’s houses of parliament and Big Ben is shown in the background
representing that Ed Sheeran is from London and he wants the audience to know that.

40. Lady Gaga is not
wearing any
clothes apart
from a weird
short of metal
necklace around
her neck. Lady
Gaga is covering
her body with her
hands. She is
wearing make up
and her hair has
been back
combed and all
big. Lady Gaga is
looking directing
into the camera
with her mouth
slightly open
showing her top
teeth. This image
I think represents
Lady Gaga as she
has a weird
personality and to
me this is a weird
image. It is an
image that
doesn’t appeal to
me. Lady Gaga is
a unique artist
and likes to stand
out so this image
does represent
her personality.
There is no big headline title so this does not follow the conventions of a
magazine. Instead they have the name of the artist who this article is based on
‘Lady Gaga’ written in the top right hand corner of the page. It is then made clear
to the reader who the article is about if they don’t know who the image is of.
The article is written in
a very simple font. The
letters ‘S’ and ‘I’ at the
beginning of the
article are written in a
white, bold font.
Those two letters
stand out more
compared to other
font used on this
article. That is a
convention used to
begin an article.
There is a big letter ‘L’ in red font in the background taking up the whole right hand
A4 side of the magazine. By having the letter ‘L’ in red it makes it stand out to the
audience who the article is about. The ‘L’ links to ‘Lady Gaga’ as that is her first
initial in her name. Lady Gaga likes to stand out from the crowd so I believe this ‘L’
helps her represent who she is as it stands out from the rest of the text on this
double page spread.

41. The title is a quote from
