magazine cover analysis

Here is a teene vogue cover from may 2009. With the ' teen vogue' the typography is always the same and is always in the same place which is shown as thier logo, the only difference is with different issues the colors will change most of the time the 'teen' and 'vogue'will be in different colours. The typography on the 'teen' will be in lower case letters where as the vogue will be in capitals.

A color scheme has been used throughout the cover which are pastel colours that reflect a sort of layed back feel wich also reflects the impression we get from the picture of MileyCyrus. She has the daisys in her hair to show that she is suppose to be care free and her hair is loose which also shows that. The white dress that she is wearing could imply that she is pure and alsmost angelic which the sub-heading 'earth angels' this could show this further by saying that Miley looks almost hippy like.

The yellow circle behind 'girl hot vs guy hot' makes the pastel green stand out more also it does this at the bottom of the page with ' win' it draws your attention to it more becuase you can get something for nothing. The main heading 'sunny style' is yellow becuase there is a play on words with sunny as the text is yellow and that reflects the sun. The typography used under that heading shows sort of scratchy sort of style which is used normally for a sort of surfer/beach sort of look so the typography reflects to the words 'surfer' within the heading.

It appeals to it's audience by using the latest young stars , using slag language such as 'guy hot' and with the bright and simple layout.
