Magazine Cover Analysis 2

 

Year Produced: 2013

Magazine Title: Scream

Sub Heading: Evil Dead (interview special)

Main Image: The main image for this magazine cover is of one of the most recognised scenes within the Evil Dead film. The background image is really dark which emphasises the headings used. The whole dark theme also links with the film and magazine style.

Colours: The colours used are also very basic on this cover. Red, white and yellow fonts are spread out evenly around the cover making it eye-catching.

The yellow has ben used mainly for little headings and the white has been used for the large 'Evil Dead' heading and the text used around the central image.

Fonts: The fonts used for this magazine cover suit the theme well. I really like the type used for the 'Evil Dead' heading as it is unique and just looks really eye-catching.

Content of The Magazine Cover: I think the main selling point of this cover would be the 'Interview Special' heading as that would be something that most readers would want to look at. The heading down the left hand side may also be interesting to some readers.

Target Audience: The target audience for this magazine would likely be 18-35 year olds once again. I think that readers that have watched the Evil Dead films would also be likely to take interest.
