Philippa Weston is researching the genre of pop music magazines to create her own magazine. She identifies several key components that define the genre including using bright colors, a large masthead and titles, a full-page model photo, different fonts and text sizes, and a messy informal layout on the cover with a more structured layout on the contents page. She will apply these elements, such as using a model in jeans and a fun top against a white background and incorporating pink throughout, to design her magazine in the style of popular pop music magazines.
