colours of this cover gives the impression that the
magazine uses music that isn’t pop related as if it was

cover line that says “Arctic Monkeys” links to image as
the image is of Arctic Monkeys. The fonts that are used
are bold. The cover line stands out the most as it is the
main story of the magazine and because it relates to the
image.

Richard Branson one has a quote underneath that is

is in sans serif font and is a big size because it
is the main heading. Below the heading it has
a sentence that tell you what it is about. It is
in a serif font so it don’t stand out more than

page and also because the majority of the page number are
in small font and don’t stand out at all.

and yellow.
These colour create a relaxing
mood so the reader can just sit
there calmly and read it.

is the same layout as what most magazines tend to go with
so it is readable from a distance.
There is also a side bar on the double spread that is in a
bright pink colour which draws the readers attention
because the colours are bright compared to the double
spread article itself because the colours are quite pale.
The double spread page addresses the reader to grab their
attention by the title “China Crisis” because they both begin
with “C” which sounds quite dramatic.
The language feature they use in this double spread page
such as using phrases such as “They’re the lost dogs” . This
exaggerates the point that they deserve more recognition
for their music
