Magazine cover analysis 2
Main image: The main image takes up most of the front page which makes it stand out to the audience. The head goes behind the title of the magazine as opposed to some other magazines where the picture goes in front of the title.
Title: The picture is a bright red which can connote blood and anger. It takes up the whole of the top part of the magazine and is a well known horror magazine
Colours: The magazine mainly stick to red white and yellow for the colours. There is a small bit of orange at the top and the background is black. Using less colours makes it more simplistic and doesn't cause the magazine to look crowded and tacky with colours
Headings: The main heading is at the bottom of the page and is significantly bigger than the other headings, this is to attract the audiences attention to the main heading before the sub headings. The sub headings are at the side in much smaller text
Magazine cover analysis 1
Main Image: The image takes up most of the front page so it is noticed immediately. The Jokers head obstructs the magazine title but it is a well known magazine so it doesn't matter. The picture is just one image with text written onto it as opposed to an image photoshopped onto a background
Title: The title is bright red which makes it stand out to the audience. It is obstructed by the picture but 'Empire' is a well known magazine so the audience still knows the identity of the magazine.
Colours: The colours of the text match the colours of The Joker. In doing this it is ensured that there are not too many different colours on the page as you should stick to 3 or 4 for the whole magazine.
Headings: The heading for the main article is bigger than the headings for the secondary articles. The text for the heading of the main article is also the only one with a different font to highlight that it is the main article and grab the audiences attention
