Kerrang magazine

Bold text used to make the words clearer and pop out at the audience. Use of 8 medium shots to help link to their magazine ad also draw the customer in with images of bands they like. A tag line is used at the bottom of the page when it says ‘ultimate review’ trying to draw the reader in by saying their reviews are ultimate. The kicker is about Avenged sevenfold and they’ve made this the biggest piece of text as well as the title of the magazine. Colour scheme is the same as most Kerrang issues with the title being in yellow and then the other colours being black and red.

Uses subheadings to separate out pages so readers can find specific features quicker and also they use different colours and have their own black background. Still uses the colour scheme from the front cover which is yellow red and black. Shows the issue number and the date of the magazine on the top of the page. Uses seven images four of them being medium size and the other three being small, out of three of the medium ones they have numbers on them linking the images to a specific page. Also includes a ‘thank you’ section and an editor’s section on the contents page giving the readers a small review of the magazine.

Uses a large picture of the band then puts all the paragraphs in front of them. And the large image is a direct address as the band is looking at the camera which makes us think they are looking at us. A pull quote has been used to get the reader’s attention and the quote has been made bigger so that the reader will notice it and then read it. This double page spread still uses the colour scheme of the magazine (red, yellow and black) but this one also include white changing it up a bit and making it seem different from everything else. This double page spread uses a stand first to give the reader some information before they read the smaller paragraphs.
