Mast head or title not only identifying the name but sometimes the genre.

The main story clearly identified, comments on the article.

Added extras and side stories.

Dark grey / blue with a light behind “Billy Joe” the lead singer of green day.

Extra pullout feature.

Themes and colours apply to a younger audience but 14 and upwards mainly as the colours and themes are flamboyant and vigorous.

Ratings are displayed and issue number.

Opinion: it is a well designed magazine and has good credentials but there is room for improvement e.g. could use a better layout.

Pug.

Magazine comparison review.

Page 2: Kerrang mag review

Masthead much more formal than the kerrang magazine and abetter layout.

Very little editing and a full page spread of the picture. Subheadings at the bottom of the page to show that the picture is the point of interest.

Name of the place magazine originates from, in my opinion there is no need if it is only issued within the school.

Information at the bottom but there could be more detail. Compared to kerrang it has a lack of information.

The themes and colours point to

an all-round audience but

should mainly be aimed at a younger

audience. It is a bit bland and

boring, it should be more exciting

and upbeat.

Opinion: it is very formal and has a good layout but it is a bit boring and is too grown up to be handed out around a school. Needs more information.

Contents page comparison evaluation.

Masthead is in a formal text and is hard to read due to the dark text.

Not enough pages, there should be at least 25 pages t a magazine.

The picture is faded and a poor quality, it feels as if it was made to price not for peoples enjoyment.

Opinion: its well laid out but the colours used are poor and the imagery is and low quality.

The layout of the page is rough.

Title is a question which draws you in to read the magazine.

A dull layout and no images but a lot of detail, very grown.

School logo low quality image not computer generated, a photo instead.

Opinion: well laid out but a bit bland and a scruffy photo not a computer generated image which would have worked better. It maybe interesting to older crowd but not to school pupils.

Single colours make the page look bland and uninteresting to look at.

Slogan.
