    Mojo mag has a colour theme

    of yellow red and white in this

    article, which is vibrant and

    cheerful colours. This attracts

    the reader because they stand

    out.

    The main image takes up over half of

    the page, making the article very

    short. This image is striking because of

    the intense eye contact from all four

    people. This makes the reader

    automatically connected to the

    people.

    The house style is bright and

    vibrant to attract the reader. The

    colours are controversial. This

    means that both males and

    females are attracted to the

    page.

    The use of a larger font for the

    beginning of the article draws

    ttention to the stor .

    The use of smaller images attracts

    the eye of the reader. The images

    are put in black and white which

    works well with the neutral colours

    of the background, yet theycontrast against the full colour

    ima e on the left.

    This photograph takes up a large

    proportion of the page, making

    the model stand out to the

    reader. The way she is stood at

    a slight angle but with her eyes

    focused on the camera, means

    she is able to make a good

    connection with the reader. This

    also suggests she is a big role in

    the article.

    Please note: this is still from vibe magazine. I chose to do this

    page instead since it involves more to write about and analyse.

    The article is about

    Beyoncs sister,

    Solange Knowles.

    This article has

    highlighted her

    name in blue to

    show the

    importance against

    her sisters name,

    which is in a dull

    grey font. This

    suggests that the

    magazine is trying toattract the audience

    to the Sister of

    Beyonc.

    The use of a quotation from themagazine article means the reader

    can look at that to find out a very

    basic summery of the magazine

    article.

    The images have been

    separated from the

    article using black lines,making a clear divide

    whilst still working with

    the house style.

    The remainder of the story is carried

    on the opposite side of the next

    page due to the image being in the

    middle. This means the reader has abreak from the article as well as the

    image being the main one.

    Cheryl Cole is photographed wearing

    black gothic style clothing. This isnt her

    usual style, therefor it attracts the reader

    to find out why she is clothed this way.

    Cheryl isnt looking directly at the

    camera, which means she is breaking

    conventions. This means that the

    audience doesnt gain such a connection

    with her, so the contents of the writing

    does most talking. This image also

    portrays Cheryl as being a multi genre

    star, since shes well known for her R&B

    songs, but this image she has on the

    magazine is showing the reader she is

    also able to do rock and roll st les too.

    The use of the enlarged and

    vibrant C doesnt only link to

    Cheryls name, but it is also

    entwined with the magazinescolour theme and the front

    cover, which includes a lot of red.

    This is placed over the top of the

    text as visual enhancement.

    The small logo of the magazine

    is shown, to advertise it. The

    page number is published

    within a box, so its easy to see

    and locate. The date of the

    magazine is also located in the

    bottom right of the pages, to

    inform the reader.

    Best looking slash kissogram ever

    steps out. This caption and the use

    of the image in the bottom corner

    attracts the reader and also gives a

    small hint into what the contents of

    the text will be about.

    A drop cap

    letter has been

    used to engagethe reader, and

    to also show the

    beginning of a

    new paragraph.

    This image takes over half of

    the article, which shows the

    audience that this image has

    got a lot of relative importance.
