music magasine analysis

The image is of Robbie William's face which makes him the main attention of the magazine. the background is just plain dark blue and the writing is mainly in red and some of it in white which goes with the logo which is also red and white with the magazine and stands out against the blue background. it also uses quotes and a rhetorical question. the feature stories. this magazine was made in 1998. It also has a barcode, date and a catchline 'music for life' underneath the logo.

The image on Vibe Magazine is of sean combes aka P.Diddy so the focus is on him and it is also in black and white. The background is just grey which makes the mast head and writing stand out. The feature stories are in red and white in a bold font, the masthead is also bold in red writing with a small black shadow which really stands out. It used a quote from him so people will want to read the whole story. This magazine was made in 2000. it also has a barcode in the corner.

The image on Billboard magazine is a mid-shot picture of Alicia keys. the image of her covers half of the masthead which makes her the main focus and importance of the magazine. the background is just one color that is a pink/purple color which goes with her top she is wearing.

mood board

The genre for my music magazine is rnb/hiphop so i have included pictures of famous rappers such as Jay-Z, Kanye West, Wiz khalifa, Drake and Nicki Minaj and MIA as the genre is also RnB i have included pictures of Rihanna, Justin Beiber, Rita Ora and Beyonce which are the most popular and current RnB artists. The audience are young adults & teenagers so i have put pictures of people in crowds at RnB/hip hop events like coachella music festival, made in america concert and hackney weekend which were young adults and teenagers. the style is urban fashion/ street wear so things usually like gold chains and a lot of jewelry, sunglasses, trainers, hats and usually tattoos.
