Front Cover Design Idea 2

This front cover is similar to the q magazine front cover which i analysed yet with a few of my own ideas. The close up of the main image created direct contact between the model and reader establishing a relationship with the buyer. The masthead would be situated behind the model to connote the models importance to the magazine, in affect this would give the reader a taste of the content in the magazine by showing the models importance, this masthead positioning also suggests that the magazine is well known and popular as the it is easily recognized by the buyers with something covering part of it. The strapline is a typical convention of a music magazine and would therefore be effective in enticing the reader to want to read the magazine. Text would be situated around the image consisting of tag lines which would make the reader to want to read the magazine, in addition to a pug which would consist of an advertisement to create a more appealing front cover. Over the main image there would be text anchoring the picture as seen on the front cover of the Q magazine and in the bottom hand corner of the page the barcode would be situated to make it look unnoticeable to the buyers.
