The first billboard magazine cover using pink as the artist
has used quite a musky grey for the background colour this may have been used
because it makes the font colours that are black white and yellow all stand
out, a pink colour has been used as the outline for the main text which is her
stage name ‘PINK` which states the obvious to the audience as to why they have
chosen to use this colour and this is because it relates to her, the artist has
also got pink her which makes it even more obvious for the reader. The
billboard magazine cover looks almost graffiti like, with the way the bold
outlines font is used on the grey background and the way the text feels quite
3D as if it’s coming of the page. These colours may have also been used as pink
is known to be quite mainly like, not very feminine and that is maybe another
reason as to why the colour pink was used, to make it more feminine and
appealing to a girl audience. The main image for this magazine cover is the
main artist herself pink who is a very well known famous music artist, she has
been used as the ‘I` in her stage name ‘PINK` which I think is quite creative
and makes the magazine stand out a lot more compared to others, no other
imagines have been used as they may have wanted pink to stand out and become
the main focus on the cover. I like the style of this magazine although it’s a
lot like any other magazine it comes across a lot more creative and bold. the
target audience for this magazine would be anyone who enjoys reading about
music and singers, I don’t think it has a specific target gender as anyone are
able to read the magazine, I also think the target audience is around the age
of 18+.
The second billboard magazine cover which uses world famous
singer Adele as their cover artist, the cover uses a dark background behind
bright colours such as red, blue, green, yellow etc. as these colours are used
to stand out as it’s the front cover therefore it becomes immediately more noticeable.
the background of Adele almost looks like leafs/flowers of lanterns which connects
to her recent concert where the whole stadium was filled with lit lanterns. The
dark background may have been used because of how Adele is known for where her
dark colours mostly black, this could mean it is her signature colour. The main
image on the cover is Adele herself as she is the main focus on the magazine.
Her face is clearly air brushed which gives a false first impressions to the
readers as she may not look like that in person, she may also have been
airbrushed so she has been made to look perfect and have flawless skin as
that’s what the readers would want to look like and inspire to look like. To me
the cover draws me in as the front looks as if the inside would be quite
interesting to read because of the way it’s interesting on the outside of the
magazine which draws the target audience in. the target audience for this
magazine would be anyone who enjoys reading about music and singers, I don’t
think it has a specific target gender as anyone are able to read the magazine,
I also think the target audience is around the age of 18+.
