Magazine research

Further magazine research                  

I have found another magazine called i-D which includes fashion in there magazine as well as music, culture, news and beauty.  I really like the simplicity of these magazine covers, they only have a close up image of a female portrait, these portraits all use direct address as they look at the camera which means they are looking directly at the audience. The name of the magazine is written in an unusual way compared to all other magazines, 'i-D' is always written to the left of the page either a normal upright landscape or turned 90 degrees making the text sideways down the page. These two letters are always written in a bold strong font but the colour changes, I think they choose this font colour depending on the background colour or main image. Also this magazine sometimes uses a box behind the main name text, this is filled with a chosen colour and this makes the two letters stand out a lot more. On these magazines there is one smaller word written towards the bottom of the page, these for example are words like, love, youthful, together, fresh and graceful. I really like the use of colour which is included on these covers, they look fun as well as simple but it works.
