What makes this R&B magazine cover stand out?
- First of all there is a masthead in place of the magazine called 'VIBE' in big bold clear font. The masthead is so big so that this feature stands out.
- Then secondly on this magazine there is a highly effective pull quote which is used in order to grip the readers attention from the cover directly into the magazine its self.
- Furthermore there is also something called a feature, this is to show who the main attraction of this magazine is and this will also grip the audience into taking the magazine, the feature is normally the most important or famous person inside the magazine.
- Chris brown also uses the angle of gaze, this is to show the reader that the magazine is created solely for you as the main cover is focusing on you and that generally means that we the audience are the correct target audience.
- Finally there is use of an exclusive this is in order to show an insight of the R&B music genre, so this may potentially grip you into buying this magazine.
