Analysis of Magazine Front Covers.

In the last few lessons we have been analysing magazine front covers, different genres and types of magazines for different audiences.

we have looked at the different aspects of the magazine front covers and what audiences they are trying to target by what is featured in the magazine shown by the straplines and the kicker on the cover.

For example, this magazine is a fashion magazine 'Vogue' it targets an audience of young women who care about their image and fashion.

The main image is of a young, slim, pretty famous woman, which can draw attention to the magazine.

The straplines are mostly about fashion and beauty, and showing the names of the main fashion capitals of the world.

There is no obvious kicker on this front cover but the big bold names of the capitals draw attention just like the kicker would. There is also no pug on this magazine cover but there are quite a few straplines on either side of her face and body.
