ANALYSIS OF MY MAGAZINE

Masthead:My masthead covers the whole of the page in order to give the potential buyer the opportunity to see it, so it optimises the chance that people will see the magazine

Freebies:I have included freebies on the front page in order to give the potential more reason to buy it as it may interest them into buying the product

Pull Quote:I have included a pull quote in order to grab the readers attention as they would want to know who the editor is on about

Celebrity Endorsement:I have included someone like Simon Cowell in order to increase the stature of the magazine as a big name would bring in more buyers

Body Language:The body language shown from the images broadcasts a ‘in your face’ attitude as they are looking direct at the camera making eye contact with the reader

Tagline/Skyline:The use of this gives the magazine more emphasis that it is a good magazine giving reader more incentive to buy

Band Index:The use of a band index breaks usual codes and conventions so it makes unique compared to other magazines. The use of this makes it easier to follow as fans of certain bands can go straight to their favoured bands and read the latest news

Subscription:I have followed usual codes and convention with a subscription offer, this gives the reader more incentive to go for this offer as in the long run it saves money for them.

Layout:The layout of this page is rather structured so that it is easier to follow and not so cramped. I have also separated the text into titles so that there is enough room to read it all and also to make sense.

Drop Capital

Social Media Link: Digital initiatives allow fans to go the bands fan page, I also created the Facebook logo myself

House style:The text of the article is the same colour as the front cover so this keeps the trend going through to other pages in the magazine, also the title as the same font throughout to show the trend aswell.

Layout:The layout of this is rather simplistic with a large picture covering one page, this allows it to be used as a poster due to the size of it
