1) This magazine front cover focused mostly on the main image, as it obscures the name of the magazine demonstrating its importance. The colour scheme is mainly red, yellow and white which is subverting the conventions of most heavy metal/rock magazines as they usually heavily feature the colour black.
The people featured in the image, especially the person at the front all show elements of rebellious clothing and appearance i.e. he is heavily tattooed, has his arms crossed showing a ‘don’t care’ attitude and none of the people are smiling. This all reflects the style and genre of the magazine. The white of the main person’s tee shirt stands out against the rest of the band, signalling him as the lead singer.
The name of the magazine is obscured by the image; however the colour and style of the font stand out against the grey background of the magazine. The name is all in capitals, this establishes the style of the magazine – loud and defiant. All the text follows the same kind of font and none of it looks out of place.This is something I would do in my magazine.
