2 Magazine Analysis

Magazine Analysis
The 2 types of Magazines I have chose to Analsye are Billboard and Shout.


 
Billboard Magazine
I chose Billboard Magazine because the largest factor of my magazine is going to be music. However it will still contain gossip, fashion and Entertainment. There is no strapline for this magazine. The main image which is of Justin Bieber is covering the Masthead, making Justin more important then the actual magazine name. The Denotation of this would be that you can see a Medium Long Shot of Justin Bieber, with a baby blue background (starting at the top with a very light blue, gradually getting abit darker). You see Justin Bieber holding a very big streo above his head, and all the typography  is to his left.
The Conotation of this magazine is that

Shout Magazine
The reason why I have chosen Shout Magazine is because this magazine represents nearly everthing. From Music to Fashion to Gossip. The masthead of this is going to be Shout. There is a strapline which says "100 Glamed Packed Pages" which is a way to draw alot of the audience to. The Denotated bit is that you can see a Close Up of Cheryl. Then around her is alot of different types of typography from huge to really small font sizes.  The Conotaion is.
