Analysis

As the

contents page

has been

separated into

two clear

sections;

Features and

Fashion, this

then allows

the readers to

grasp what

certain topics

would be

underneath

each section.

The V in the

background is

initially there

to represent

that the

magazine

belongs to

Vibe.

The use of Ciara

posing in a sexy

position

reflects that

the magazine

belongs to the

genre of hip hop

and R&B.

The positioning

of the artists’

leg is used to

catch the

audience’s

attention an

allow them to

focus on where

her feet are

pointing to.

The use of the

text ‘contents’

being big and

bold, allows

the audience to

know what page

they are on.

As the feature

‘Fashion’ has

its own section,

this makes it

easier for the

readers to visit

a topic that

they are

interested in

which is under

certain feature.

Also both

subheadings have

been used in a

different type

of font from the

rest of the

writing to stand

out and allow

the readers to

know what will

The artist is wearing similar

colours to match the

background of the page; this

is used to bring attention

away from her and more focus

on the text and to also have

less of a colour crash.

Analysis

The use of the

‘V’ on the top

left hand

corner

represents

that this

magazine

belongs to

Vibe magazine.

This shows the

numbers of

certain pages

that will

feature within

the magazine

and it also

displays the

headlines and

titles to

certain

articles and

top stories.

This allows

the readers to

know exactly

what page they

must visit to

find a certain

topic.

The use of a

well-known

artist may

signify that

she will

feature in

article within

the magazine.

The outfit of

the artist

does not

necessarily

suggest that

she belongs to

the genre of

either Hip-Hop

or R&B as her

clothing is

not typically

revealing. The

use of this

well-known and

familiar

artist will

allow the

audience to

realise what

genre magazine

it may be.

The use of large jewellery or

in other words ‘bling’, this

also relates to the genre of

either R&B or Hip-Hop music

industry as the use of large

jewellery is as convention to

R&B females.
