Looking at magazines


It is important in magazine design to remember that you must include certain conventions to grab your target audiences attention. The covers above indicate that the use of a bold and large masthead that covers the top of the page helps to give the magazine an identity and unique quality.The size makes us instantly know that this is the title of the magazine.The less interesting information is reduced in size as this will not endearing enough sell the magazine. Also , a main bold image creates a greater impact and is easier for the eye to view.An acceptation to the rule would be the match cover as it is full of images rather than a clear stand out. The sell lines in each margin gives an clear impression of good value for money.Most magazines self consciously attract a specific age group and reflect their audiences opinions and views. This helps them to crete a market for this age group.
