    Task 1a ANALYSE THE FRONT COVER

    The header summarises the main artist that will feature in


    the magazine. As the genre of the magazine is associated
    with rock, these would normally be rock bands. However,
    Dizzee Rascal goes against this convention broadening the
    audience.
    The masthead NME clearly stands out at the top of the
    page- it takes up about a tenth of the magazine layout.
    The font used is a dramatic font style (from the Dafont
    site). It uses an abbreviation of the magazine simplifying it
    for the audience.
    The rule of thirds rule has been used to add interest to
    the target audience. The cover/main image dominates
    the page making it look fuller and busier reflecting the
    genre and unconventional audience.
    The main sell line anchors the main image so that the
    right things are seen by the audience (Dizzee Rascal). The
    font is big and bold making it sound out. Im spreading
    joy around the world, man!
    The main image is a long-shot of the artist
    (model) Dizzee Rascal but him crouching down
    clearly labelled with the large caption placed in
    the middle of the page. It uses direct mode of
    address with a happy face, pointing to the
    audience directly making them feel like it was
    made especially for them. His arms are coming
    out creating a grabbing/hugging effect which
    connotes with happiness.
    Barcode, price and data/issue number are all vital
    elements of a magazine. Its at the bottom of the page,
    making it out the way and not too visible.
    16 page Autumn tour special is inserted above
    the magazine as a banner telling the audience
    exactly what is expected in the magazine.
    The footer of the page is a list of Rock bands
    (relating to the genre rock). This broadens the
    audience as it attracts audiences who favourite
    the artists, it also shows theres a lot more
    going on in the magazine. Analyse
    The puff has been used on the left third of the
    magazine, to draw attention to the news
    making it stand out. It also creates a bit of edge
    to make the magazine unique.
    The top of the magazine also sits another list of
    artists which feature in the magazine.
    The outfit the model is wearing is quite casual casual
    and reflects the magazine (mise-en-scene). He is
    wearing a sleeveless top which shows off his tattoo,
    this connotes he is rebellious.
    Colour scheme used is mainly red, white and black.
    These are all bold colours making it stand out. The
    white font are all in white font, which is also the
    colour of his vest, this links everything together.
