The magazine title is bold and related to the colour, font and boldness as the rest of the writing. This ensures it fits with the tone of the front page. The guitar overlaps the ‘E’ to give the image a feeling of depth as if it is 3D and standing in front of the text when the image was taken.

The sub-title is effective as it draws the eye to the rest of the text.

The main text is large and eye catching and captures the reader. The mix of fonts and colours compliments it as it seems different yet matches somehow. There is a difference in fronts, italics, boldness and underlining – the mix of all ensures the attention is given to this text.

The use of an instrument represents the genre of the magazine this is a success and something I will take forward on my own front page.

The colour scheme works well the blue, white and black doesn’t clash and ensures the writing stands out and is easy to read. The black background is successful as the image is black and white therefore it sets a tone to the image that goes further than the facial expression. I feel the use of having three set colours for the magazine is useful as it is visually pleasing.

The use of the word ‘unseen’ makes the reader feel as if they are getting something unique from this magazine to encourage them to purchase it. By including the page numbers it makes it look professional.

The bizarre, distinctive position of the guitar ensures the image has a further meaning and has more depth as a successful photograph. It makes the reader interested at first glance to provide a purchase.
