Magazine cover analysis (1)
- 2. Masthead The masthead is the most distinguishable text on the cover page, in bold letters, and shows the title of the magazine.
- 3. Main Cover Story A brief line that tells the reader about the main story in the magazine
- 4. Taglines Bits of information that will attract the reader into wanting to purchase this magazine. Words like ”revealed“ make the reader want to purchase it more due to a feeling of exclusivity created between the customer and product. The taglines obviously release information that a specific target audience will be interested in, in this case, guitarists.
- 5. Another offer that would make the demographic want to purchase this magazine even more, a segment that each issue contains, where guitarists can learn popular songs off of the magazine.
- 7. Masthead The masthead, as per convention, is in a bold and easily distinguishable font.
- 8. Main Cover Story The main cover story for this issue has a bold heading so that it may stand out, and the description is highlighted in black, so that it may attract attention, and may resemble the Masthead.
- 9. Taglines The taglines provide insight into the articles of the magazine, however not dispensing enough information, since that will attract the reader to purchase the magazine. The headings of the taglines are written in colors that catch the readers attention.
- 10. Cover Photo The cover photo has been shot through the point of view of the Male Gaze, to attract more male customers to purchase this issue of the magazine. The model in the cover photo is wearing clothes that fit well with the color scheme of the magazine.
- 12. Masthead Like the other two examples that we have gone over, the masthead is, once again, one of the most prevalent and distinguishable features, and catches the consumer’s eye relatively easily.
- 13. Main Cover Story This gives the consumer some form of insight into the main story of this issue of the magazine, that will encourage them to purchase it. This is usually smaller than the masthead, however slightly more distinguishable than the taglines, implying significance.
- 14. Taglines These are more snippets or teasers of things that this issue has to offer, that make it a more valuable thing to purchase, in hopes of increasing the value of the product in the eyes of the reader.
- 15. Cover Photo Since the cover photo is the first thing someone notices about a magazine, it is supposed to attract the demographic that this specific magazine is targeting, in this case guitarists. So, obviously, a picture of someone playing a guitar might strike the interests of most guitar players.
