Magazine ideas

This magazine has the main image as simplistic, the image is in black and white which makes it look more attractive as there is not a clash of colours. The masthead is eye-catching thanks to the font colour being a bright colour. The font on the magazine also fits into the style of the magazine which is different to most fashion magazines. The woman on the main image is looking into the camera which draws people into buying the magazine as they feel she is looking at them directly. The cover lines do not detract from the main image as they are below and to the side of it rather than making the mistake of going over the main image and then being unable to read them. This magazine is aimed at 18-25 year old females because it has a younger look to it, it does not have a older model on the cover which is what older people would look for.

This magazines main image is different because it only shows part of the model and she is leaning to one side rather than being straight up and and surrounded by cover lines. This means that the only thing you are drawn to is the main image and the mast head. The masthead is bold and in white so its brightness stands out more than a black masthead, so more people can see and read the name of the magazine clearly which means that people will know what the magazine is about and will be more likely to read it. This magazine uses the rule of thirds in the main image as the models face is directly in the centre which is where most people's eyes are drawn to. By using that method people are more likely to decide whether they like the look of the magazine and whether they will buy it. This magazine would be aimed at females aged between 16-21 because it does not have as much as a professional look to it and most people are starting to climb the career ladder in their early to mid twenties.

This magazine also sticks to a simplistic theme so that it stands out more than a bright clash of colours which makes the magazine look tacky. The colours of the magazine look stylish as it is mainly black and white, which could show that the colours are not the main features of the magazine but what is inside is. The cover lines are basic and just say what is in the magazine rather than writing them in codes and then not getting to the point. This magazine is aimed at male or females who are aged 16-20. An alternate audience for this magazine would be fans of the music and bands that are featured in this magazine.
