Rock/metal magazine, KERRANG!

Aggressive styled fonts and pictures.

One main story surrounded by other images to do other stories within the magazine.

The images are all close ups, so people liking the bands can recognise the bands on the magazine.

The colour schemes are black and white, which is associated with the stereotypical people that would read the magazine. There is also a bit of read, but that’s because the cover lines aren’t necessarily placed around the hotspots.

The layout is more ordered and easy to look at.

Pop magazine, Q.

Calm fonts and pictures.

One main story to do with the main image, surrounded by other cover lines.

The images are close up/medium shots, and one full size image (head top toe)

The colour scheme is black with red or white on the top.  This makes the text all stand out.

The layout is more cluttered, but generally quite neat.

Classical magazine: Classical MUSIC

Formal images and text.

Main story takes up the whole of front cover. There are other cover lines, but they are small in context to the main story.

The image is sort of an eye level/ wide shot, to show the man sitting down on the bench.

The colour scheme is pale colours, which gives a formal look.

The layout is ordered, again, contributing to the ordered look.
