MAIN TASK: Initial Analysis of a range of music magazines.

After analysing 5 different magazines, I have noticed that they all contain the use of Mastheads, Strap-lines and all contain a main-sell in their front covers. They use a wide range of shots from Long Shot to Medium Close Ups. Most of the magazines offer freebies to their audience (MOJO, MixMag and BBC all offering CD’s). From analysing these magazines I have seen some key features that I shall use when producing my magazine, for example I shall use contrasting colours to capture the eye of my target audience. Also by using freebies the target audience will want to purchase the magazine.

Magazines analysed:
