Here are some RNB magazine front covers. I chose RNB because it is the same genre as my very own magazine. Most of these magazines have a mod-shot or close up shot of the artist, the reason why is because it shows the artists body language and facial expressions in detail therefore the audience know how they are feeling or what type of magazine it is. They are also the main focus of the magazine to attract the audience because they are a celebrity, this is called celebrity endorsement.
The costume used is main showing a lot of their skin or wearing a lot of jewelry for example on the second magazine on the second row it shows a man showing is muscles with no top to attract an audience and on some of the other magazines jewelry is worn to show they are rich and the magazine will be good. A lot of RNB magazine are similar as the images taken of the artist look serious. They way they are portrayed tell us what type of genre it may be.
The font styles used in these magazine front covers look very similar because they are big and bold, they stand out to grab the readers attention. Not only are they big and bold they are also in blocks texts which make it stand out. The colors used are also bright and attractive to instantly grabs the readers attention to make them read on and buy the magazine. The font colors also stick to the house style which makes it look professional.
The overall representation of the artists tell us that they are serious and take their job seriously which is to produce enjoyable music that people would like to listen to.
