To produce my own magazine, I had to do some research on some magazine covers that I like. and here are a few of my favourite ones, and i have analysed them.
Elle is a women’s fashion magazine.
The image is a studio shot; we can tell this as this image is a posed position.
The image is edited we can tell this by the eyes.
The colours of they eyes are the same colour as the masthead.
There is only one image on the cover, this shows that there is only really one main focus for this months issue.
All of the colours used for this cover magazine are quite soft. And the colour of the font and the background of the image all match, and are all the same colours.
The font is rounded; this can show that the magazine is quite feminine.
Men’s fashion magazine.
A studio shot, again like the elle magazine this is a posed position. And the background is there on purpose.
The pose is a man stood up, this shows status.
Cover lines are written in capital letters, this can also be another way to show power. And it also stands out more.
Colouring of the writing is simply black or white. So its more noticeable and stands out more.

It is a posed position
The background is created purposely for this issue. And it is in black and white.
The image is also in black and white but it stands out from the background.
The masthead is in a different colour, and in yellow because that colour attracts more attention.
The fonts of the cover lines are all different but they do not clash.
The font is capital letters to show power and status and its more noticeable.
