Research for 'Childrens' Magazine
I chosen this Nicktoon magazine as it relates to my childrens theme. This one first took my attention with the Simpsons picture. All children like The simpsons, and this would be a very good attraction. The magazine is bright, colourful and very busy with pictures. This again is a strong attraction for a childrens magazine.
The title/header on this magazine stands out really well, with it being bright white, big and bold, creating the brand image. It also makes the magazine recognisable to its audience.
A variety of different cartoon stars have been pictured, all giving a direct address, looking into the camara, to interact with the audience.
The leading caption on this cover, dominates the main story within the magzine. 'Are Naruto and Lisa more than friends?' This anchors the cover story, and makes the audience want to know if they are or not.
No subheadings are used that refer to the leading caption, as that says enough, to attract its audience. No extra information is needed about the article inside, as the question keeps the audience open, and wanting to find out. The only subheadings used are to intorduce other stories within the magzine. 'Wanda V's Marge - the feud continues.' and 'Ed, Edd or Eddy - whos the hottest hunk?'
No straplines are used.
