Research/ Case Study - Front Cover - Clash Magazine


  • This image is a close-up shot and you can tell because the image is zoomed in to the shoulders.
  • The image has been move behind the masthead and all the bold writing has the same font type and the smaller sized font is the same as well.
  • The cover lines are all on the right hand side of the page because that is where people are most likely to look when they see a magazine.
  • The front cover is also like the contents page because it lists what will be in the magazine.
  • There is a barcode on the front cover and the price is underneath it, in pounds and dollars.
  • The body language of the man in the image clearly shows that he is modelling.
  • The black and white colour scheme shows that it is quite old fashioned and it says '1975' on the front cover letting the reader know that it is going to be an edition on something old.
  • Above the masthead there is a skyline letting the reader know what will be in the magazine.

  1. Quite brief, little or no analysis of connotations or meanings. Comment on genre and the reason for the unusual placement of the masthead and cover lines... this needs developing Zainab.
