Three Front Covers

Masthead: NME – Brand name, well recognized music magazine  Red, white and black coloured font (colours normally associated with music magazines).

Main Coverline: “The Last Shadow Puppet”. Links into the main image which is a photo of both band members (Alex Turner & Miles Kane).

Main Image: Both people are dressed to look as though they are in a band, or how people perceive these types of people to look for this specific genre of music. Photo is a low angle medium  studio shot, which creates a connection to the audience and the main image, allowing them to identify with the type of genre portrayed. 

Pug – promotion for Album, form of titillation.

Coverlines:  Other supplementary information comparative to either the main coverline or music associated with this type of genre portrayed in the main image.

Masthead: GQ - well known mens fashion and style magazine. The title of the magazine stands out in a bold black and white print, the black and white makes the title look classy compared to other men’s magazine covers such as Nuts and Zoo. The title only consists of two small letters, but they can have a big impact as it is easy to remember and rolls of the tongue

Main Image:  It is a portrait, posed, studio image of the actor that is eye-level with the camera, creating a connection with the audience and making the image and therefore the magazine more personal. It also makes the viewer identify with the subject of the photo more. Connection to coverline "Heath Ledger" 

Main Coverline/ Coverlines: There doesn't appear to be a main coverline, just a lot of coverlines, which could signify how all the stories are equally important, however certain coverlines and larger and bolder.

Masthead: Vogue.It entices the reader by drawing in their attention. Because of the mastheads familiarity and affluence associated with it, the word, font and size of the masthead has become well known. The masthead is well known so they use an actress (main image) who is equally as well known to draw in more readers. As well as this, since the title is covered slightly by the actress it shows that the magazine is well established and just as well known as her, if not more so, so it doesn't need to be seen. The layout is also well known, so people will know what the magazine is, even if the title is hidden.

Main Image and  Main Coverline: "Holiday Romance" the colours used are eye catching yet nonchalant. The red dress she wears relates to both Christmas and passion, which reflects on the main coverline. The actress in the main image shows confidence and portrays sex appeal and beauty. This may make other woman want to buy the magazine so they can be like her.

Coverlines: May appeal to woman who don't have a lot of money and can "Invest" in something that may not cost a lot but still make them feel as if they've spent a lot of money.
