Magazine Research

From looking at current magazine front covers I have learnt that the main image is purposely overpowered the masthead because the image is more important and regular buyer/fans can tell which magazine it is by the magazine layout and colour scheme which magazine it is even is just two letters are shown.

I also found out that music magazines each have an individual colour scheme which represents their magazine so colour on a magazine is important.

On all of the magzines which I looked at each one had the name of the band/ artist who was the main image in big bold writing next to or on the main image to highlight that they are the main focus in this weeks/months magazine.

I noticed that there wern't many subsidairy images and the sell lines etc. were all around the edge of the front cover so that they didnt obstruct the main image.
