Third front cover anaylsis

THIRD FRONT COVER

-Masthead: The masthead is bright due to the contrast of the black and white rest of the magazine,this makes the masthead stand out and the yellow makes it look more interesting. Although it is relatively small and the main pictures lays over the masthead, but this probably isn't a problem because the readers are familiar to the title.

-There are three layers and three different colours for the whole magazine, as well as a variation of different fonts making the magazine repetitive but interesting because the things needing to stand out do with the mix of colours.

-Rule of Thirds: This magazine doesn't conform to the rule of thirds, it could be separate into  halves. 

-Lure: In bold is 'WIN!' this can also make the audience buy the magazine if they're interested in winning anything inside.

-Three articles are sign posted on the front, but only one page reference of it is used. The Nirvana article is the most prominent because its the most important due to the article being a Anniversary special of the Band, This being important and it gives a good idea to any new customers what this magazine is like. 

-The Colours of the magazine on the cover are black, white and yellow, this is a popular scheme to have the grey scale with the huge burst of colour being yellow making it stand out and it's what us as a audience  read first.
