This magazine focuses on pop music and culture, targeting female audiences. The logo uses bright colors like pink, white, and black in a bold, eye-catching style. The cover features popular artist Rihanna, and lists other stories about famous artists to attract readers. Advertisements for fashion brands aim to further engage the target demographic.

The genre of this magazine is pop, this is obvious through the logo that has been created and the
colour scheme used and in particular the popular artist included as the main image . It is a very in

target audience of females.

8. Text: The title of the article is very bold with the conventional colours of black and white, the
writing used again is very rebellious due to the fact that it is the story of the artists, therefore this
may be why certain capitals are used for certain letters. The font used is similar to that used on a
ransom note, therefore this may contribute to her story. Some of the most important text is in red
which matches the artists shirt and also the writer of the article is red so that it stands out from the
other text. The article its self is justified into columns in order to make it easier for the audience to
read, also as I mentioned before regarding other magazines, the beginning of the article starts with
a bold capital letter.
Image: Similarly to most magazines the image is justified to the right hand side, and is cut away
and placed onto a background. She is not doing a particular rocky pose, she is just natural.
However she is wearing quite dark eye make up and is wearing a red baggy lumber jack shirt.
The facial expression in which she's is pulling ‘’I’m not bothered’’ obviously illustrates what the
article is about. Her hair is slightly messed but straightened over her face to show her rebellious
personality. She also has her hands on her hips to create a stern look to reinforce her
personality traits.

11. The text is justified to the left hand side of this page, however it is in an unusual format as the
image takes up some of this page too. This means that the amount of text in which they are
obviously going to use is restricted. The title of this article is very bold and larger than the rest of
the text, I would presume that the font would link with the artists CD cover or merchandise as it
is different to NME’s master head. Also main quotations and key points within the text, including
the first letter of the article are in blue, so that the audience can easily pick out this information.
The actual article itself follows traditional conventions of a magazine as it is justified and
paragraphed into columns.
The image as I mentioned above is very large on this double page spread as it take up the whole of
the left page, but it also overlaps onto the second page, resulting in the amount of text being less,
this is probably down to the target audience, as they would prefer to look at the image rather than
read the interview, also it would attract a less educated audience as there would be less to read. The
image itself is of the band, including there instruments, they are not posing as such, just looking
straight at the camera, which makes it seem as if they are looking straight to the audience.
Therefore people who like this band would really like how clear and large the image actually is.

14. Image: the image again is justified to the left, and cutaway onto a plain background, in this case
black in order to show the image more effectively. The artist looks very casual, he is wearing a
plain white t shirt with a yellow and black cap in order to look very realistic. He has no facial
expression, however he is blowing smoke through his noes and his mouth, therefore this shows
us the edgy side of the artist. The colour of the artists cap links to the colour of the logo on the
right side of the double page spread.

looking straight toward the audience.

17. The text is justified to the left hand side of the magazine, the title is larger than the rest of
the text which is conventional, and it is in a similar font to the master head. The main text
within the article is in blue, which obviously links to the artists however this is unknown as
there is no obvious link to the image. Similarly to other magazines the first letter of the
article is larger than the rest of the text.
The main image is justified to the right hand side of the magazine, however the image slightly
overlaps onto the right hand side of the magazine, with a small text box of information on top of
the image. Differently to other magazines this image has not been cut away and put onto a plain
background, this magazine has the scene of a street in order to make it more realistic. The artist
within the image also looks as if he is hitch hiking, which could relate to some members of the
audience. The only piece of colour which is on the right hand side of this magazine is the main
caption of the article, and this is yellow in order to link with the main master head and
background of the front page of the magazine.
