Introduction

Hi, I'm Beccy and this is my blog for my AS Media Studies Course. I will be writing what I have done in my Media lessons.

First of all we found out what key things there are on the magazine front cover. These main things are;

- Puff

- Freebie

- Mast-head

- Sans Serif Font

- Reversed Out

- Main Sell

- Screamers

- Cover lines

- Strap lines

- Website Address

- Issue Number and Price

We also conoted the colours used on the magazine cover. For example red would mean romance, lust, sex, danger. We also conoted the font used, the bigger the font the more it will stand out and get the customer to buy the magazine. Clearly the magazine is for men hense the reason why Kelly Brook is standing in her bra, this would make the man be more incouraged to buy Loaded. The model is covering the magazines name, this suggests that the magazine should be known to the customer. The red writing stands out, the red could also suggest love, romance, sex, danger as the other red things on the magazine cover would suggest. The yellow on the magazine clashes with the red which makes it stand out more also.
