News Stand Task

                                 NEWS STAND TASK

This image was taken from the magazine section in a local corner shop. Looking at this image the magazine titles i am able to identify are , XXL,HI-FI CHART,MOJO,DJ and Wire. All these magazines have been displayed towards the top of the shelf which could be due to the magazines having a target audience of adults keeping it out of reach from children. Analyzing the magazines on the shelf within the image i was able to identify that the front covers of majority were very bright and eye catching however some such as MOJO were dull however had a vibrant white text making the magazine still stand out. The most commonly used font was bold i believe the reason for this is due the fact it stands out and is portrayed as sophisticated. The images on the music magazines all have some type of model or well known artist grabbing its audience attention.

There are many magazine distribution methods such as using social networking sites like twitter, Facebook etc these sites  will help the magazine grab a larger amount of audience. Magazines such as HELLO have their audience subscribe entitling them in to being sent the online version of their magazine.
