    Detailed class analysis of music magazine

    NME

    Masthead- The masthead for NME magazine


    is in big bold letters which stand out and
    immediately catch the target audiences
    attention to the magazine. The masthead is
    the first thing we see and its presenting itself
    to the target audience.

    Model/group- The model of this magazine


    is Dizzie Rascal, he is a well known rap
    singer and therefore this tells the target
    audience what genre and content will be
    inside the magazine. He takes up most of the
    page (A Long Shot is used to capture all of
    his body and clothing.) and is the centre of
    attention. From this I can guess that the
    majority of content inside the magazine will
    be about Dizzie.

    Strapline- NME music magazine doesnt


    have a strapline but other magazines
    probably would. This would be a slogan or a
    catchy phrase.

    Mode of Address- The magazine communicates with


    the target audience by using a young male model who is
    currently popular. By using a well known artist for the
    main image it means that the target audience is more
    likely to read the magazine and then buy more editions of
    the magazine if it features artists they like .

    Mise-en-scene- The whole front cover is


    pleasing to the eye as the colour scheme
    links together and the text isn't too close
    together so it is eye catching and attracts
    the target audience.

    Denotation- The literal meaning of the


    quote Im spreading joy around the world,
    man! would be that Dizzie is spreading
    happy feelings all over the world.
    Connotation- The hidden meaning of this
    quote would be that he is creating a sense of
    joy in quite a few different countries.
    Genre- The genre of this music magazine
    would be rock / rap music. I know this
    because firstly, the main image is of a
    famous rapper which immediately tells us
    the genre. Secondly, the cover lines show a
    list of artists which confirms that the
    magazine features some rock music.
    Rule of Thirds- Dizzies head has been
    placed into the main hotspot of the
    magazine, this catches the target audiences
    attention and shows that he is the main focus
    of the magazine.

    Barcode- The barcode is placed in the bottom


    right corner of the magazine, this is a good
    place to put it as it wont distract the target
    audiences attention away from the front cover

    Niche Market- A small target


    audience for this magazine would
    be young adults as they listen to
    the music featured in the
    magazine however they are only
    the niche market as the wider
    audience would be people in
    their 30s.
