Typography.
On my magazine i will be using San Serif on my front cover because it is easier to read, conversely my DPS will use serif because it is easier to read when close up.
Q Magazine Lana Del Ray Double Page Spread
This double page spread from Q magazine features the artist Lana Del Ray and my favourite part is the use of editing where blue tones have been use to give a professional look but i dislike how the drop cap letter is unclear of what the 'S' means.
NME Lily Allen Double Page Spread
In my opinion this is my least favourite double page spread because the colour scheme used is quite boring and the model used (lily Allen) is quite casually dressed and does not like a lot of effort has been put in. I like how key names in the article are written in a different fonts and the colour red to show how they are significant.

Q magazine Jay-Z Double Page Spread
NME Magazine contents analysis
This issue of NME magazine is one of my favourite contents that i've analised due to band index which shows the bands featured in this magazine but if i was to change a part of this contents i would add another picture because this will entice the customers to the magazine as it becomes more interesting to them. When first looking at this magazine i notice how it is very busy which may become intimidating to the reader as it is a lot to take in or the contents.
Classic Rock Magazine contents analysis
The Classic Rock contents features four images which is my favourite part of this contents because it makes it more interesting and with each image an anchor text is used to show where the reader can find out more about why the picture is there. In this contents I don't like how the pictures are edited using different colour schemes that don't all go together nicely so certain aspects clash.

B&S front cover analysis
In this issue of 'B&S' magazine i feel that too many colours are used which make it seem unprofessional but i like the use of bold fonts meaning key words stand out on the cover. The image is not half body therefore the cover looks cluttered to possible buyers.
Q front cover analysis
In my opinion this magazine is very powerful and eye-catching due to the use of contrasting colours. The red and black help the magazine to stand out to possible customers and create a strong rock image. I also like the use of the silver and chrome because it goes with the rain and skin tone of the star on the front cover.
NME front cover analysis
In my opinion this magazine is well structured and follows conventions to a professional magazine with a clear colour scheme where they use contrasting colours (red & blue) to make the cover stand out. They clearly display the magazine is for music with the prop of a record in the cover image and the title 'NME' standing for 'New Musical Express'.
