Magazine practical task: blog work

1) Use your lesson notes on magazine genres and conventions to view a range of potential magazine covers. Create a shortlist of three potential magazines and embed an example front cover from each one.
  • Male Fitness
  • Fashion
  • Music
2) Select your chosen magazine to create a new edition for and explain the thinking behind your choice.

3) Find three different front covers for your chosen magazine and embed them in your blogpost. Analyse the fonts, colours and typical design. What is the language or writing style? How are the cover lines presented? You need to become an expert in the design and construction of this magazine and its branding.

The cover lines are all on either side of the featured celebrity which keeps them in focus. The 'XXL' brand logo is seen behind the model rather than in front to keep attention on the model themselves. This magazine usually follows the hottest artists within that time so keeping them in the spot light is important. Their name is also the largest print.
