I believe this magazine is aimed at both genres, although because of the colour scheme on the cover of this magazine, lots of pinks and blues, this specific issue is aimed at females. The masthead is in quite a clear font, and is bold, which makes it stand out on the baby pink background. The main image of Katy Perry is overlapping the masthead which shows how important she is in this particular issue. I like how they’ve used the colours inside the A and D of the masthead; it blends well and creates attraction on the shelves. The sweet spots are quite eye-catching as they have a yellow title which matches well with the background, with the text being bold and black, like the title. This puff is quite interesting as it’s separated from the rest of the cover, which shows it could be placed here as it’s important and this is where the audience’s eye will be drawn to. Here is the date and issue number. The main image is relevant to the magazine as the colours that Katy Perry is wearing blend in well with the background and title colour. As well as this she’s wearing flowers as a prop which connotes that she has quite a soft personality, however the black of her dress connotes the message that she could have a darker side. The cover line is quite bold and indicates that she is the main celebrity in this issue .As well as this the shape of the text curves around the contour of her body. There is no anchorage text or a skyline therefore it makes the magazine cover appear less busy , although I think that it adds less information.

I believe this magazine is

aimed at both genres,

although because of the

colour scheme on the cover

of this magazine, lots of

pinks and blues, this specific

issue is aimed at females.

The masthead is in quite a clear font, and is

bold, which makes it stand out on the baby

pink background. The main image of Katy

Perry is overlapping the masthead which

shows how important she is in this particular

issue. I like how they’ve used the colours

inside the A and D of the masthead; it blends

well and creates attraction on the shelves.

The sweet spots are quite

eye-catching as they have a

yellow title which matches

well with the background,

with the text being bold

and black, like the title.

This puff is quite

interesting as it’s

separated from the rest of

the cover, which shows it

could be placed here as it’s

important and this is

where the audience’s eye

will be drawn to.

Here is the date

and issue number.

The main image is relevant to the magazine as the

colours that Katy Perry is wearing blend in well with the

background and title colour. As well as this she’s wearing

flowers as a prop which connotes that she has quite a

soft personality, however the black of her dress connotes

the message that she could have a darker side.

The cover line is quite

bold and indicates that

she is the main celebrity

in this issue .As well as

this the shape of the text

curves around the

contour of her body.

There is no anchorage

text or a skyline

therefore it makes the

magazine cover appear

less busy , although I

think that it adds less

information.
