This magazine is very simplistic looking and contains only a few bits of information, but the include the main information the reader needs. This magazine says it comes with 5 ‘awesome posters’ this is mostly seen in children’s magazines. on the cover it contains many short quotes that pull readers in for example ‘I was almost killed on stage’. This is something people would want to know. In my magazine I will use an interesting pull quote. The layout of the magazine is well planned, I like how the main image is in the middle with minimal text around it, this makes it look less crammed and more clear. A weakness I would say is the title it is hidden behind the main images

This magazine is very simplistic looking and contains only a few bits of information, but the include the main information the reader needs. This magazine says it comes with 5 ‘awesome posters’ this is mostly seen in children’s magazines. on the cover it contains many short quotes that pull readers in for example ‘I was almost killed on stage’. This is something people would want to know. In my magazine I will use an interesting pull quote. The layout of the magazine is well planned, I like how the main image is in the middle with minimal text around it, this makes it look less crammed and more clear. A weakness I would say is the title it is hidden behind the main images head, if I didn’t know what the magazine company was I wouldn’t be able to find out because it doesn’t say the title anywhere else. If this is an issue in my magazine I will plan out the positioning of things

The 1st page of the double page spread is a full page picture with text in it saying ‘the worst phone call of my life’ this is a good use of a pull quote and a brief overview of what the interview is about. The text is easy to read and easy to understand what is an answer and what is a question. A positive of the page is the running theme of white, blue and yellow these colours all fit in with the theme of rock and roll.
