The document discusses recommendations for designing the front cover and interior pages of a magazine. It suggests that the masthead should be bold and reflect the magazine's style and topic. A main image on the front cover and double-page spread is important to set the tone and focus of the issue. The cover should include an incentive like a competition or free gift to boost sales. Consistent branding through colors and style makes the magazine visually appealing and easy to navigate.

1. Fromwhat I havefound out through this research my work will defiantly be
influenced by whatI have found out. Firstly the masthead needs to be bold and
stand out from the rest of the page, it also needs to link in with whatthe
magazine is about and what they are trying to show this can be done by
changing the housestyle and colours of the text. Also it seems that there
always should be a main image on the front page and the 2 paged spread, this
is done on the first page as it helps to create a sense for the reader of who is
the main focus in the magazine and whatthey can expect this issueis about,
For the double page spread it is important for the image to be about the
person who that article is about and how they look should replicate the mood
of the article. Furthermorethe cover page should defiantly have a skylinethe
reason why I think this is because this gives the magazinemore chance of
being sold if you give them something for free as everyonelikes free stuff or
for the chance to win a good price e.g. Tickets, this will help boost sales of the
magazine. Also I will include sell lines and a main sell lines, these are important
as these are on the frontcover so they are some of the firstthings they read so
they have to be good lines if they are it will increasethe chance of the reader
buying the mag. Also there has to be the samehouse style and colours
throughoutit, these are importantas it helps keep the structureand make the
magazine look appealing and good to look at. Finally the magazine needs to
have a numbered contents page this is important so the reader can find the
right sections they want to swiftly and easily also the reader is able to have
little snippet of the magazine so they can decide if they really wantto read that
article or whether they justwant to scan through that one.
