SciFiMagazine


The masthead is in it's own font that will make it easily recognisable in a shop, so that a fan of the magazine can easily pick it out but the title makes it obvious to the reader that they are going to like this magazine. The dot of the i is done in this special planet style, so that it improves the image for the magazine and gives it that extra look of professionalism.

The selling line is used to help sell the magazine to potential readers, this helps to increase the number of readers, also installs a confidence in the reader that the magazine will be quality.

the main image uses a famous actress to attract a wider audience and use the sex appeal that the actress has gained over her time in film to attract a male audience, which this magazine will be aimed at. The main image is used to engage the reader, in order to attract the reader when it is sitting among other movie magazines. The choice of clothing is important to, a revealing top makes the magazine more attractive to the target audience.

The main cover line is in the second biggest text on the page, this is done to draw the readers eye to it and show its importance to the magazine. The main cover line does not need to be put over the main image because the actress' star appeal is such that the target audience will know who this person is, showing off the stars that this magazine can attract.

The use of the red highlighting for the cover lines attracts the reader to these points, the highlighted words will usually be to signify that this magazine has something different that no other magazine has, or something particularly important to this months issue of the magazine, this makes the magazine more appealing to a reader, who when has a choice between magazines, will go for the one that has the most exclusive stuff.

The left third of this magazine contains lots of red which sticks out from the blue's that are on the rest of the front cover. This makes it more eye catching when it's in the shop, so it sticks out from other magazines, as well as this it contains a picture which also helps to attract the eye when the magazine is in a shop.
