Cover line
The Primary cover line
is presented in a font
which ties in with the
subject which the
cover line is talking
about. For example
the cover states ‘The
Tattoo Issue’ And the
font is a typical tattoo
font you see that
people have.
Pull the reader in
because they
have an offer
where you can
more than just
the magazine
A special issue where
the rock stars off
bands shows off their
tattoos and it’s not
focused on their music
but a subject to do
with the artists.
The red background creates a
contrast where the main image
pops out at the audience. Also
red is colour that suits rock
music. Alongside this a
connotation of red is passion
and love. This could signify the
artists love and passion for
tattoos in which we are going to
see in this issue.
Teaser (on banner)
Yellow contrasts and
stands out from the
black banner which
then itself stands
out from the red
background
The yellow masthead contrast
against the red background. The
masthead is onomatopoeia, as
when you strum and electric
guitar, it makes the sound
Kerrang.
