TEXTUAL ANALYSIS 3LEWIS HARDY

FRONT COVER • THE MAIN IMAGE IS A MEDIUM CLOSE UP SHOT WHICH FILLS THE MAJORITY OF

THE PAGE, WITH THE ARTIST IN THE CENTER/RIGHT OF THE PAGE LOOKING DIRECTLY INTO THE CAMERA.

• THE ARTIST IS HOLDING A BROKEN TRUMPET AS A PROP TO FIT WITH THE COVER LINE TO THE LEFT OF THE SUBJECT, THE COLOURS ARE TYPICAL WHITE, BLACK AND USE OF ORANGE, THE WHITE BACKGROUND MAKES THE ORANGE TEXT STAND OUT. 

• THE MASTHEAD IS LARGE BOLD TO MAKE IT STAND OUT AGAINST THE IMAGE AND BACKGROUND, 

• THE MAIN SELL LINES ARE IN WHITE AND ORANGE WITH THE MORE IMPORTANT ONES HAVE A COLOURED BACKGROUND, THE LESS IMPORTANT ONES ARE IN SMALLER BLACK TEXT. 

• ALL THE SELL LINES ARE ON EITHER SIDE OF THE PAGE. THE FONT MATCHES THE SAME KIND OF FONT AS THE MASTHEAD, BEING BOLD TO STAND OUT.

CONTENTS PAGE • THE MASTHEAD IS USES THE 3 COLOURS PALLET, IT

IS SPREAD ACROSS MOST OF THE PAGE MAKING IT STAND OUT.

• LIKE MANY OTHER CONTENTS PAGES, THIS PAGE HAS A LARGE MAIN IMAGE WHICH TAKES UP A LARGE PART OF THE PAGE, THIS AGAIN IS TO SHOW THE MAIN FEATURE OF THE MAGAZINE, USED TO ATTRACT READERS, THE IMAGE IS SHOT IN WHAT APPEARS TO BE A HOUSE. 

• ON THE RIGHT SIDE THERE IS A COLUMN WITH NEWS, REVIEWS AND FEATURES LISTING THE CONTENTS OF THE MAGAZINE.

DOUBLE PAGE SPREAD

• THE FIRST PAGE FEATURES A LARGE IMAGE OF THE ARTIST SIMILAR TO WHAT IS ON THE FRONT COVER, THE MASTHAEAD IS GOING DOWN THE LEFT SIDE AND THEN UP TO THE TOP OF THE TWO PAGES.

• THE SECOND PAGE FEATURES A LARGE ARTICLE ABOUT THE ARTIST, THERE IS A LARGE PIECE OF WHITE SPACE HOWEVER WHICH I THINK IS A BIT MESSY FOR A MAGAZINE AND THE WHOLE PAGE SHOULD BE FILLED
