Front Cover Analysis of Music

Magazine

Nicole Antonio

Photoshoot Images…Chosen Image

Final Image… The reason I chose this image is because it

reflects the style of my magazine and the

genres which are pop and R ‘n’ B and the

background colour matches the colour

scheme of my magazine as well. Also, her

eye contact is specifically looking up which

shows she is addressing upwards. Another

reason why I picked this image is because

it has a lot of space for the masthead,

coverlines, Strapline, Priceline and barcode

which can help my cover look not too

crowded as everything can be spaced out.

Finally, the image of Saba singing is simple

but can grab the audiences attention and

again can link back to the genre of music I

will be talking about.

First D raft of Front C over…From my first draft I first had to

change the colour of the cover lines

and make them not underlined also I

had to take away the speaker Saba is

singing in to because it made the

cover look too ‘busy’ but without it

looks better and looks more like a

realistic music magazine now. From

my feedback I also had to make a

barcode and then extend it to make it

bigger to fit the name of my magazines

website, the price and the date as well

and finally I also made the masthead

bigger to make the title stand out and

make it look bold and bright.
