Analysis of magazine front covers





Vibe and Blender magazine have the mast head in title, as they are in the centre, where as NME has theirs in the left corner, in my opinion, that is the better idea because it's to the side and is not covered up by the picture. However, the masthead colours are all different but the one that sticks out the most is NME's because it is bright red, highlighted in white and placed on a black bqackground.
The images used for Vibe and NME are similar as in the sense they have medium close ups of the music artists whereas Blender has a almost full body image but just the bottom of the knees are missing.
the kind of fonts that are used are similar bas the colours used are black so they stand up against the white backing and the white or gray background.
The story layout on all three magazines are similar because they are all placed at the sides of the magazine cover and so are the artists names.
I am going to take these ideas of these magazine and apply them to my ideas.
