For my main task, which is to create a

music magazine, I have chosen to create a

classical music magazine. So, what I have

done, in this presentation, is deconstructed

the front cover of a classical music

magazines as part of my research to help

with my music magazine.

Large main title to clearly

show the name of the

magazine, also part of the title

where it says ‘music’ is on the

side and is rotated, this is an

effect used to emphasise the

main idea of the magazine,

because although it is about

music, that’s just type of

magazine, the word classical

is deemed more important as

that the genre

The main story of the magazine

is in large bold writing, this then

hep the readers notice the fact

that that is the main story of that

particular issue, an this therefore

makes them want to see the

inside of the magazine and they

would like to see what the largest

story title is all about.

The main image is

particularly focused on this

man due to the fact he is

the main story of the

magazine, its placed next

to his name which is the

main title of the magazine.

The image also contains a

violin which shows his

profession and ties in with

that whole idea of a

classical magazine.

Like all magazines the front

cover contains a bar code,

out of the way but still easy

to see so people can find out

what the price is and also

helps shop keepers out as

well.

The image is also quite grey and

this gives it a bit of a mysterious

effect to it, in contrast to this, if it

was bright it wouldn’t have the

same effect to it.

Also in terms of the model

himself, the eye contact of the

model helps catch the eyes of the

audience helping the audience

look at the model right away,

making it the main focus of the

cover.

The text underneath the main

title is a short briefing of what

the title is about, making the

audience want to look inside

and read what the story is fully

about.
