Clash front cover 3.

This is the more original clash front cover, this has the black and white image and text with the important text highlighted, this is a very good feature and I wish to use this for my magazine but giving it a more rough and dangerous look, by doing this it means that I can have made my own magazine that looks unique and is recognizable.

This shows the contrast in personality from the rough look with the smile on his face shows his cheeky side to personality and love for music. This is very clever as it is not expected within a magazine to give the contrast of them all. This would be a good idea to use within my own magazine as it has a good contrast throughout the magazine and this is the look I would be going for.

The word Nirvana is larger than the original title, this is because the magazine will have a lot of information about Nirvana, and by putting this larger than the title it shows the importance it has within the magazine, also the word Nirvana is highlighted in yellow, also to show its importance. I wouldn’t do this within my own magazine as it is a new magazine and I wouldn’t want the attention taken away from the title and information about the inside of the magazine. The layout on this front cover is messy and informal, this is a good effect as it reflects the personality and attitude of the target audience. It shows a rebellious side to the magazine instead of following the codes and conventions of magazines.

On each of the magazines there is not as much information into the magazine, this is to grab the reader’s attention and not give too much of the magazine away. By doing this the reader may become more interested to find out what is inside the magazine. Also the bar code on this particular magazine is placed on the side, this relates to the titled main image as if the whole cover has been tilted to the right. This is a unique feature of this magazine and one I wish to carry out in my own magazine.
