This is cosmopolitan. Cosmopolitan magazine is aimed for the female generation aged around 16+, the masthead is bold and quite a simple font this catches the readers attention, it is also colourful which also makes it seem more appealing to the audience. The magazine cover has a main image of Scarlett Johansson, the image stands out and would make an impact on the news stand as the woman has eye contact and stands out clearly. This magazine also has a lot of cover lines which are distributed around the magazine, mainly around the image. Also taking up a lot of space on the front cover is the main cover line 'sexy eyes' it is in two layers and in two different light colours, this shows up well against the white background of the magazine and is still bold enough to grab the readers attention.
This is secondary magazine. Secondary magazine is a college magazine therefore it is targeted towards teachers or anyone with a job or interest in the teaching profession. The masthead is bold and simple to the point but also colourful so still attracts the eye. The college magazine has a main image of two regular students of a mixed ethnicity this is promoting that anyone can get a good education and no-body is excluded. The front cover of the college magazine has one main cover line which in turn is the only cover line, it is in a plain bold font and reads 'challenging stereotypes' which is significant to the image. The main cover line is also in Yellow which attracts the reader and is a good contrast to the darker background.
Things i should include on my college front cover:
- Bold Masthead
- Main coverline
- Limited coverlines
- A main image of students(try to get them looking different)
- Date and price
- barcode
- Colours and fonts that will attract the audience but also be a good contrast to the magazine.
