Music Magazine Cover Analysis

In this particular music magazine issued by “Fuse”, we can see that the main focus is on the face of the women. This facial image on the front cover instantly tells the reader that this person will be featured quite largely in the contents of the magazine. It’s a quick, easy way to explain to the reader of who/what will be features largely in the magazine.

The main colour of this cover is obviously and orange mixed red colour. This being the hair colour of the women being featured. The font is then mixed with this by using a type of white stencil. Letting the background, be the text of font that is being used as it bleeds through the stencil that is being used as a form of text surrounding the image.

The layout of this which is used is seen to be much uncluttered. You can see in other music magazine covers that the cover is very full of text surrounding the whole image, trying to give out as much info as possible on the front cover. In some thoughts of minds, this can be unattractive and seem too much. However doing it like this, shows that they are giving out the information that the reader needs to know if they would like to read this magazine.
