- 2. Most of these magazine front covers will contain one main
image used as a feature that will attract the audience. The
similarities regarding the imagery is the angle of gaze. They all
look into the camera. The shots are all mid-shots and it is clear
that they are the main feature of the magazine. Most of these
magazines will only have one image on the front cover, however some
(like the middle magazine) have more than one which may give the
audience an idea of what else may be in the magazine. Angle of gaze

- 3. By looking at these magazine covers, I can see that they
have a lot of similarities. One being the colour scheme. They may
not use the same colours, but they all use the same amount and use
them effectively. Most of them only use 3 or 4 colours at the most.
The main colour theme here is orange, black and white. COLOURS
- 4. All magazines have a substantial amount of text on the front
cover. It makes the cover look filled up. A front cover wouldnt
look good if there were loads of gaps. There are only often around
2 or 3 fonts as more than that would make it look very cluttered.

- 5. The layout is also very similar. Youll have the image in the
centre with text placed around it. There are loads of graphics to
grab the readers attention. You will see subheadings, pull quotes
and puffs. These are the similarities in most magazine front
covers. The masthead is usually clear and bold at the top and
covers the whole of the top. However some mastheads can be at the
top left of the page. FONT/LAYOUT
