Analysis of the second draft

This is the second draft of my music cover.  I have included the basic conventions such as masthead, bar code, main image, USP,   pull quote and website address, however I haven't included skyline, price and date and other feature pictures therefore my cover looks incomplete and plain. For the main image it's 3/4 medium frame shot this is a conventional frame shots for nearly all music magazines this angle allows the audience to see the facial expression and their clothes. I have chosen a girl to feature my front cover because pop female singers represent younger female audience and therefore can relate to the audience. I could also have a male pop singer but he has to be young and good looking to appeal the audience. I ave also included the sell lines because they're conventional as it appeals the audience to buy the magazine to read more. For my masthead I have used the colour pink because stereotypically pink is a girls colour, the font looks like a hand writing and age appropriate. This font connotes bubbly and fun this creates an effect on the audience because it looks fun.  I have outlined the masthead to make it obvious and exciting, the stroke effect is also conventional but the stroke would be white to connote positivity and purity and not black. The masthead should also be behind her head because the main image is promoting the magazine and in that way the magazine becomes well known and popular.  The ''OMG'' effect inspired me from another pop magazine it's in caps and a shape to give the effect of importance and shocking. This word is abbreviated and matches young teen audience's dialect this is important because the audience feel relatable and comfortable to read the magazine because it's appropriate. The name of the artist is in a big font and outlined in black to keep the colour consistant. The pull quote is in pink but not appealing this has to be more bold and exciting because this is the main story for the magazine.  I need to include the price and date near the bar code, it's usually written in a shape to make it more clear but because it's expensive the price is little and un-noticeable.
