Conventions/contents analysis front cover


Masthead- The masthead is very clear and understandable for the reader to read. Also it’s in black block letters and is on a white background which makes the name ‘company’ stand out. Also on the letter ‘n’ reads ‘magazine’ in white which stands out more rather than it being under the master head. Although you cannot see the full master head we still know which magazine it is because of the constant on going same master head on every magazine they print.

Headline- The main headline on this magazine cover is ‘Ibiza rocks’. We know this is the headline because it is in a different style of writing and colour than the other headlines, also it’s in the centre of the page and is positioned differently so it hits the reader’s eyes straight away.

Main Image- The main image is next top models winner Mecia Simson, however it does not mention the models name as a headline and only says ‘its Britain’s next top model’ which almost makes it like she is new and no one has heard for and she hasn’t been revealed yet. The outfit the model is wearing is very summery which fits in with the ‘Ibiza rocks’ headline. Also there’s a shadow behind her which makes the model come of the page and look more 3d.

Colour Scheme- The overall colour scheme is very summery colours pink and yellow; they stand out on the white background which makes it more readable. Also the black logo really stands out with it being a different colour to the headings.

Sell Lines- The main sell line on this magazine cover is ‘254 hot looks for less’ it’s bigger than the other headlines and really catches the readers eye as it’s also just below the price logo. The next main sell line is ‘x rated erotic fiction’ which makes the readers want to read about it.
