3. HEADLINES AND MASTHEAD
In a typical magazine the editors will use a short and
memorable title usually to capture the target audiences
attention. This gives a corporate Identity to the magazine, and
is located at the top of the page and carries the same design In
each issue. This is to keep the identity of the magazine and
make it so even after the image that covers the page grabs the
readers attention they can still identify the magazine.
4. IMAGES
On the front cover the image is usually large and the subject is
clearer visible and surrounded by representations of them to
make them more recognisable. Normally there is eye contact
between the subject to the camera. The image must always fit
with the content of the magazine and must follow the same
colour scheme as the house style lf the magazine.
5. BUTTONS
These are a circular graphic that may contain the
price of special offers within the magazine.
This number
would intregue
the audience.
6. HOUSE STYLE
The specific usage and editing conventions followed by
writers and editors to ensure stylistic consistency in a
particular publication or series of publications.
"House style is not a reference to the canard that an
entire magazine can be made to sound as if it were
written by one writer”.
7. THUMBNAILS
Thumbnails are reduced-size versions of pictures, used to help in
recognizing and organizing them, serving the same role for images as a
normal text index does for words. Thumbnail is a term used by graphic
designers and photographers for a small image representation of a larger
image, usually intended to make it easier and faster to look at or manage a
group of larger images. For example, software that lets you manage a
number of images often provides a miniaturized version of each image so
that you don't have to remember the file name of each image.
