1. 1. Genre: Travel SOFIA BOLTZ
2. 2. NEWSSTAND The genre that caught my eye the most was the gossip genre. These caught my eye the most because of all the bright colors and big fonts that attract attention. The yearly Florida travel guide caught my eye the most on the newsstand because of the cover image. The yearly Florida travel guide has the best photography and the best design. The designers created the magazine in a way to be most appealing to readers. It also had the articles that caught my attention the most because I want to try to make my magazine specific to Florida. The magazine that had the best table of contents was Lucky because it was formatted in a way that was easy to follow along. The magazine that had the best articles was Elle because they were very thorough.
3. 3. NEWSSTAND What I noticed at the newsstand was that more popular magazines were in front and the not as popular magazines were kind of hidden. The travel genre doesnt seem to be a very popular magazine genre because it was hidden in the back. I had to really look to find those magazines. The design style that I liked was the table of contents that included pictures.
4. 4. NEWSSTAND This magazine is inspirational to me because it focuses on places to visit in Florida. I want my magazine to be centered around Florida. The cover image attracts attention with the colors and many coverlines.

6. 6. TRAVEL + LEISURE The central image of the covers are generally a woman on the beach, the beach, or if it is a specific place like Paris it features a famous landmark. All the photos are taken outdoors and on location of the focused place of the article. The masthead changes colors depending on what color looks best with the cover image. They never have puffs or pugs. The coverlines are placed according to the space around the picture.
7. 7. This cover image is most inspirational to me above the others because of the format. The image has enough space on the side for the coverlines so it doesnt look cluttered. In addition, the cover image is appealing to the eye. I like how the color of the masthead is complimentary to the cover image.
8. 8. TABLE OF CONTENTS The table of contents contains many pictures pertaining to the subject. The pictures use bright colors to attract readers with many vivid scenes. While there is some white space, there isnt much. The white space that is used is appealing to the readers eye. The layout for the table of contents is either pictures around the border or the contents in the middle or pictures on top of the content.
9. 9. ARTICLES What the articles have in common is that they are all about locations. The cover of the issue has an overhead view of a hotel with a pool and palm trees bordering around the pool. The cover image is very balanced and linear.
