Textual Anaylsis


(Kerrang!)


Front Cover-





Kerrang! The title of kerrang sounds like a guitar this connects to what the music magazine is based around, the target market would be people who are into rock. The front cover for Kerrang is based with red and black colours. The masthead is in a different font to the rest of the text and stands out as its white text behind a black background. The main focus of the picture is the man in the center of the magazine, this is a mid close up shot with his shoulders in shot. The main picture connects with the cover line as the man in this picture is from guns n'roses. All the text is in capitals this makes it easier to read, also stands out. There is a red theme on the front cover with little parts of white the white stands out and empathises the main parts. The circle with the the price overlapping the masthead is eye catching as when you read the masthead it overlaps and catches your eye. There are coverlines at the bottom left hand side which are not very eye catching but if your interested you will read everything. There is a PLUS sign so this will catch your eye to read it. The barcode is in the corner for convience to scan. There is a strap line with competitions on winning a signed guitar. There are dashs of red around the magazine in important places these dahs of ed catch your eye therfore, your eyes scan all the main aspects of the front cover of the magazine.
