Mixmag is the closest thing to the genre of music i want to do. Mixmag has a similar audience to my magazine. This magazine seems to show a lot of common trends on the genre of magazine.
One common trend seems to be the style of having a lot of text on and images surrounding the main image. I think this makes the cover seem very overcrowded and makes me unsure on what it is i need to look at, this issue is attempted to be fixed by making yellow a common colour and then the odd splash of pink on the things they wish to stand out.
However i found that the covers that make more of a impact are the ones which are more minimal, this also does not make the magazine seem very trashy.
This magazine uses only 3 fonts and that is common for a lot of magazines as it has to stick to a house style and that gives the magazine its individualism.
The magazine also has a subheading for the title and this is used to try and attract more people and address the target audience.
This cover uses the rule of thirds too. It has subheadings to the left, an image in the middle and then subheadings to the right.
