Summary of Findings

From analysing my first music magazine text, I have found that most magazine covers contain a long shot of the artist(s), this is something that I would like to apply to my magazine, as I think that it is quite effective. The main colour palette of the magazine is usually black, red and white, this gives it quite an edgy look, and also creates simplicity within the magazine. Also, the overlapping/letters covered (occasionally) on the front cover of the magazine, gives off a very rocky image, linking to the whole idea of how rock artists aren't particularly bothered about their image/attitude, this is something that we might apply to our magazine. This is because, it shows that the magazine has such a large mass audience that they don't need to have the whole brand name showing on the front cover, the public will instantly know who the brand is, and buy it anyway.
