2. STUDENT MAGAZINE ANALYSIS – SOCIAL STEREOTYPE
Main image is the
largest image on the
page and uses direct
address to entice the
reader to buy the
magazine as she is
looking directly at the
camera. The image is
an effect way of
demonstrating the
difference make up
makes to the girls
appearance which is
what the article is about
and whether we judge
her differently with
different make up.
The headline is the largest
text on the page and
stands out from the
background of the main
image being white text with
a black outline. The
headline is a different font
to the other text also
making it eye catching to
the reader. It also bleeds
across both pages. It tells
the audience what the
article is about linked with
the main image but
doesn't’t give too much
away.
The smaller images
used let the audience
know other people or
subjects the article
includes. It also
includes captions
explaining what the
image shows and
how it links to the
article.
A pull quote from the
main text that represents
the documentary makers
own experiences with
stereotypes. This
interview is on the
documentary makers
opinions about how
society influences young
people and how they’re
perceived due to
stereotypes.
The background of the
article is effective and
looks more interesting
than a white
background. It looks
like doodles and graffiti
which fits the ‘teen’
topic the article
focuses on as teens
are often associated
with these 2 things –
linking to stereotypes
of teens.
The standfirst and pull quote
is blue which stands out from
the bland background this is
eye catching to the audience.
As the standfirst is the first bit
of text the audience reads it
must catch the interest of the
reader so they continue to
read.

3. STUDENT MAGAZINE ANALYSIS – MADE IN BRUM
The main image
features the
documentary
maker and takes
up one page of the
double page
spread. The phone
and flash is
effective and links
to the article topic
of ‘selfies’. It
cleverly looks like
he’s taking a selfie
but is infact a
professional photo.
The headline is bold
black that stands out
from the white
background. The
same font is used on
the standfirst and pull
quote but in red text
which makes this text
more eye catching to
the audience. The
headline bleeds
across the double
page and main
image.
The smaller
images show
people from the
documentary
taking selfies.
This effectively
links to the
documentary
topic while
promoting it
too.
The standfirst introduces
Joe and how he’s made his
way to fame through the
documentary and blog he
created. It intrigues the
reader and makes them
want to continue reading.
The text is red which stands
out from the white
background. It is the first
thing that the audience
reads in the article as it is
eye catching.
The pull quote has a
box similar to the
colour of Joe’s shirt.
This effectively links
the colour scheme
to the main image
and draws the
readers eye this
text.
The name of the
documentary,
the date time
and channel are
also in red. This
is at the end of
the article. It
reminds the
audience to
watch the
documentary
and where to
find it. It is also
bigger text than
the rest of the
article

4. The headline is bold black
text. It is the biggest text
on the article and a
different text to the rest.
This makes it eye catching
to the audience. It
introduces the topic of the
article the audience knows
they’re investigating
videogames.
The main image is of the two
main onscreen presenters. It
links to documentary as it is a
screenshot of one of the shots.
They look professional but are
wearing typical teenage
clothing.. The colour scheme
links to the colour of one of the
boys shirts. They are standing
in a formal manner in a setting
they interviewed the public.
The other image on the page
features the same two
presenters above an Xbox.
The image is quite comical
indicating to the audience it is
not a completely serious
documentary.
The standfirst is italic and
a different font. It further
explains what the
documentary is about.
This is the second thing
the audience reads after
looking at the main image
and has to stand out and
catch the interest of the
audience by being short
and snappy.
The colour scheme fits the
genre of the magazine and
links to the main image as
the shirt the presenter is
wearing is also blue. This is a
clever way of linking the
image which is the first thing
the audience would look at.
This blue circles would then
draw the eyes of the
audience to the rest of the
text.
