3. The Masthead
The mast head of the magazine is orange which is giving an extremely
bright effect and greatly complimenting the entire page as the
colours used for the background and the cover lines are quite dull .The
way the masthead is written boldly is very appetising
4. Tagline/Selling Line
The tag line of this issue is 'Adorning Adele
.Since Adele is a very famous personality and
many individuals are her fan s,they may
purchase the magazine because of her ..
Her name is what attracts customers and
persuades them to buy the magazine.
5. The Anchoring Photo
The Anchoring Photo is a Close up Shot
as Adele (the subjects head)has taken up
the entire image and the shot clearly
shows every minor detail of Adeles face
We can see that her makeup is done in a
very elegant way and she is prevailing
the fashion and makeup trends of the
time the magazine was issued.The way
the camera is zoomed towards Adeleâs
face indicates her significance in the
entire magazine
6. The cover lines are written in White which gives a quite neutral
touch and being in bold makes them more prominent. Choosing
white for the cover lines was a marvellous way to break the colour
scheme of having an extremely dull blue and an extraordinarily
orange tag line and masthead

8. Magazine Cover General
Analysis
The front page of Bon Appetite is
designed in a very unique yet
appealing and attractive way. The
black and grey background makes
the pasta look very attractive and
since black and grey are not very
bright colors it gives the picture of
the pasta the opportunity to pop up
in a very attractive and colorful way
making all the ingredients prominent
and tempting
The way the white dots symbolize
the pleasure of the pasta is
outstanding. Unlike many other
magazines that have way too many
bright colours,I believe that the color
scheme chosen for the cover of this
magazine is extremely classic and
the colours complement one another
very well
9. The Masthead
The masthead of this Magazine has
letters colored black and white which
gives it a formal look. However the
red and yellow colored letters brings
about some diversity. For eg:- The
country names are in yellow.The use
of red and yellow gives a bright
touch to the masthead and makes it
look more appealing.
10. Anchoring Photo
The subject of the Anchoring Photo of the
cover page of this magazine is a plate of
pasta.This would have been selected for the
anchoring photo as having the
mouthwatering and scrumptious on the front
cover is an extraordinarily brilliant tactic to
attract customers for the magazine who
might end up buying the magazine just
because of the temptations injected in them
by their first sight of the pasta plate.
The anchoring Image is a close up Shot which
is tightly framing the subject.The minor
details are revealed through the close up
image such as the ingredients and veggies
and sauces used.It does not show the
surroundings.The viewer cannot assess the
location where this shot was clicked hence
being a close up image .The anchoring image
prooves that the producer of this magazine
aims to target food lovers.
11. Tag Line
The tag line of this magazine is
âFabulous Pastas'. These words are
written in larger fonts as they
indicate what the content in the
magazine is about.Unlike the cover
lines that re in different
colour,these words are written in
white which is used in the
masthead as well indicating what
category of food Bon Appetite
would be having in that particular
month
12. Puffs
Puffs play a significant role on a magazine cover. Having yellow
colored puffs of the cover of a magazine with a color scheme of
red white and yellow makes it very attractive. The customer would
look at the puffs before the cover lines because of the way they
are placed of the magazine.
13. Cover Lines
There are a number of cover lines distributed across the page. The colors of the
alphabets of the cover lines differ from one another which symbolize that they
are unique and all different topics.These cover lines are demonstrating the
different articles in the magazine. Eg;- The five minute appetizer is something
different from âBeer Braised Short Ribsâ which is connoted by the different
colours used in them.
14. Barcode
The barcode of this magazine is located on the
extreme where the background is coloured
grey.The barcode could not have been located
elsewhere on the magazine as it would
destroy the customerâs view giving the cover
an unpleasant look. Eg:-It would be highly
inappropriate to have the barcode in the
middle of the cover lines or below the
masthead

16. The Masthead
The masthead of this magazine is written in bold capital letters with a quite big font
size making it clear that it is the name by which the magazine is referred to. Having the
masthead in white makes it stand out according to the background which is a
combination of the different shades of blue making it look extraordinarily classic.
However,the customer can not read the entire masthead as two of its letters are
covered by the model;s face indicating that this magazine is popular and welllknown to
such an extent that it can be recognized even if a few alphabets of its name are
omitted
17. Anchoring Photo
The subject of the anchoring photo is a male. The
anchoring photo symbolizes that this model will
be featuring in the magazine.The model of the
this anchoring photo is made to pose in an
extremely classic and fashionable way.The colour
of the modelâs attire is similar to the colours of
the magazine coverâs background which is why
the pink tie breaks the colour scheme brilliantly
and adds a little brightness.Though the cover line
does state the model in the magazine,having an
image of the model on the anchpring cover was
immensely significant in order to attract
customers.
18. Tag Line
The Tag Line of the Magazine is located in
huge sized font In white colour .It is not even
near to the cover lines.As Hrithik Roshan is
considered an outstanding celebrity, his name
in the tag line is written using a bigger font so
it would attract the readerâs attention. The big
sized font would ensure that this tag line is
the what the reader has his/her first sight on
after holding the magazine .Eg :-âAn exclusive
sneak peak is not written as boldly as the
modelâs name hence showing the significance
of the modelâs name which would attract the
customerâs attention and invoke desire in the
customer eventually reading to the sales of
the magazine
19. Cover Lines
The coverlines on the magazine page are there to give clues regarding the articles in the
magazine.As we can see, the fonts of the cover lines completely differ from one another which
indicate that the artciles are not based on one specific genre but ta variety of different types of
interesting articles are featured in the magazine.Eg;-The font of âAlia Bhattâs Food fetishââ has a
bigger font than the other two as reading that cover line would attract more customers than reading
about the health Secret.âAyushmannâs health secrets revealedââ is not written in capital letters unlike
the other cover lines hence prooving that this feature is not likely to convince a customer to
purchase the magazine.The topics that have a higher chance of attracting readers are written boldly
in capital letters
20. Buzzwords
The buzzwords on the cover page are located on
the corner on the right. Having buzzwords on the
magazine is a fabulous method of appeal .The
buzzwords are made prominent with exclamation
marks and being written bold. The buzzwords are
located after the cover line. The buzzwords are an
incentive and another reason for an individual to
purchase a magazine. For Eg;-An individual may
end up buying the magazine by reading about the
gifts in the magazine which would not have been
possible if it would not have a bold cap sized font
located in the corner hence the way they are on
this cover
