House style
They all have the billboard logo down the
side of the magazine front cover. This has
changed over the years. The picture below
was the original logo and then they have
since changed it to this simpler one. The
colour varies through different issues but it
gives it a more sophisticated look.
Big picture and image manipulation
On the new versions, there is always a big
picture in the middle of the front cover. On
the pictures, especially the girls, there would
have been a lot of manipulation. For
example, they would have smoothed out the
skin and made certain body parts thinner. In
the Taylor swift issue, they have enhanced
the colour of her eyes to make the blue pop.
They could have also done it to Zayn's to
make his eyes darker.
Language
On the front cover, they don’t use many
words but the titles and pull lines are
creative and will pull the readers in. for
example, they use a play on words on
the Zayn's issue. It says ‘Zayn Malik’s
new direction’. This is because he left
one direction and started writing his
own music. Also, on the Indina Menzel
issue, it says ‘The (Not so) New ‘It’ Girl’.
This means that she's been around for a
while but she has had a comeback.

House style
All of these issues have a big masthead, which is
the q, in the corner of the page. It is the same in
every issue. The colour scheme are mostly the
same on each : red, black and white. Furthermore,
opposite to the billboard house style, this magazine
has a lot more writing on the front page.
Big picture and image manipulation
The pictures of the celebrities are in the middle and
it takes up most of the front page. Cheryl’s front cover
was most likely manipulated to make her face more
defined and the colours to pop out more on the
picture.
Language and type faces.
Like I said before, Q magazine uses a lot more
titles on their front cover. They also use words
such as ‘best’, ‘rocks’ and essential. These make
the articles sound exciting and will make the
reader want to read more of the article. They
also use various fonts and sizes to make certain
parts of the articles stand out. They stay with the
black, white and red theme through the fonts as
well.
17. 18/04/2017 By Megan Gilmore 17
The title and picture is large, this
draws attention to who the article is
about, in this case, its mark ronson.
They add a bit of information
about the article underneath the
title. This will make the readers
want to read more of the article.
There’s a quote that is
larger than the rest of
the text, bringing
more attention to it
and shows its an
important quote.
The colour scheme
is black and white,
keeping it simple
but effective and it
is easier to read.
18. 18/04/2017 By Megan Gilmore 18
The design reflects the artist, as he
looks like he’s part of a rock/punk
band. The colour scheme is simple
and only uses a few colours which
are black, white and pink.
The questions are
highlighted in white to
make them stand out
more and makes it easier
to distinguish between
question and answer.
This magazine also
uses a line to pull
readers in to read
more of the article.
The image of the artist is
big and shows the reader
who the article is about.
It sticks out on the plain
grey background.
