The whole style and layout of this Music Magazine Front Cover has an attractive feel about it, I think this because it has subtle colours – the colours of the text consist of pink and black, with a white background – and the colour attract your eye to them, making you want to read more into the Music Magazine. I also think that this Music Magazine Front Cover has an attractive feel about it because of the text style, because the text style is consistent – it stays the same throughout the Music Magazine – and also the Masthead, for example, stands out which catches people eyes. On this Music Magazine Front Cover is Calvin Harris, he takes up most of the Front Cover, this could portray him as bold, of important and ‘out there’ - also he is posed simply, the could show that he is relaxed and chilled out with his work and general life.This Music Magazine Front Cover would appeal to people aged 14 to their early 20s, I think this because of the way the Music Magazine is presented and what’s included in then – they are thing that would intrigue more of a younger audience – and also the artist on the front over – he would be more know by this age range.

The whole style and layout of this Music Magazine Front Cover is messy, as everything is layered on top of each other – for example, the Masthead is under the Main Image – this is good in a way, because it looks like there is more to the Music Magazine Front Cover and makes it more eye-catching. The text style is bold, which draws your eyes to it, therefore making you intrigued. The text colour, in my opinion, doesn’t stand out that much – because it is white and pale blue – and that would attract me to read it. On this Music Magazine Front Cover is a bunch of people, and some are looking laid back and some are looking a bit serious, this could show how some people are represented in their music – some are trying to get on top, and others are taking one day at a time.This Music Magazine Front Cover would appeal to younger teenagers, i think this from how this Music Magazine Front Cover is laid out – with everything being layered and looking messy.

The whole style and layout of this Music Magazine Front Cover is loud and outgoing, I think this because it includes a lot of information on the front cover, which could make people want to read the Music Magazine because it looks busy. The text style is big and bold, which draws your eye to the main features – like the Main Article Cover Lines – and also the text colour draws you to them main features. On this Music Magazine is Little Boots, she is shown as a ‘sex symbol’ on this, which would attract men to read, and also she seems laid back, which makes her more likable in my opinion.This Music Magazine Front Cover would appeal to older teenagers, because of how ‘cluttered’ the Music Magazine Front Cover is, and because of the artist on the Front Cover.
