This magazine cover is from the magazine FADER. I think that the colours used on it look natural and vibrant, these colours contrast well with the shade of the images skin. This cover is very simple and all flows nice together , the main thing that caches your eye first is her face and then the master head FADER. to me it looks like the logo or pug" is the F of the FADER this is very simple but affective.

The sub heading is very small in the bottom left hand corner this might be because it isn't that important, except for the KERI HILSON bit in the middle of the sub heading, to me i think that it stands out because that is the important bit. The only thing that i can sea wrong with this cover is the lack of info on the whole cover, but this may be to make it simple as i stated

Anaysis of kerrang magazine




This front cover of this Kerrang magazine is particularly striking because there are three close up shots of band members which draws your eye straight away. The one in the middle caches your eye first because of the mask that he wheres. Throughout the front cover there are loads of sub headings and advertisements which build up the most of the page. Te colours used on the page are very simple, the reason for this is because if there was loads of different colours it would make it complicated. The master head looks likesmashed glass i think that this represents the sound being so loud that it has smashed the glass.there are three different genres on this page. death metal , heavy metal and Indy rock.

This front cover is very simple because it only has a few colours, it is simple but effective. The way that the master head is layered behind the head of the image gives the illusion of the black colour of the master head being disguised as the hair of the person. Te text around the image makes a border or a frame and the way it is black and red contrasts with the red t-shirt and the black master head. The facial expression of the person in the image makes me feel that he is frustrated and sad.
