The magazine that I analysed is Classic Rock, Classic pop, Kerrang and Jazz journal to see what I need to put in my music magazines and ideas.
Classic Rock Magazine
Classic rock is a monthly magazine that is about Rock music and rock artists and its owned by Team rock which is set in the UK, Scotland Glasgow.
The magazine came with an CD and this is trying to get the audience to start liking or know the type of music so rock that its on the CD so the company of that CD can make money when the audiences buy their music and products
Front cover
The masthead is the word Rock ad that is bigger than every word on the front cover and it's also an headline, the barcode at the bottom horizontal with the price and month and the word 'classic' is an overline because its above the masthead and the headline. The masthead is big and at the top of the page so the audience can see and know that magazine is "Classic Rock" and not get the magazine confused with another magazine.
A talkie headline is at the front cover where the three people standard its an sell because it's shows an quote that someone has said who is in the magazine and this promotes the magazine because the audience may want to know what is happening to the band called queen because is a popular a long time ago.
The picture on the front cover is three people are standing this is a medium long shot because its showing head to legs of the three people and the mise en scene is costume because the one in the middle is wearing a leather coat jacket and the prop is that he is also wearing earring and another person is wearing sunglasses this shows that this magazine is Rock and Roll type of magazine.
One code and convention is the barcode is horizontal and its the left side of the page and this is because the audiences is western so they will read left to right, not right to left also it's important for the audience to know how much something cost for them to buy it or not.

Content page
There's an wob on the content page where an male is in the picture who is a new album of queen and the text next to his legs are in white and the background is dark and this is use because the colour red stands out and it gets the audiences attention also its the 'cover story' of the magazine this means it is very important for the audience to read.
In the content page there's an picture on the left and the text is on the right,the content page has two pages and they both has the same type of layout.
Double spread page
I know that 36-37 is the double spread page because the magazine design is going across two pages. The text on page 36 has Drop caps the letters ‘M’ and ‘B’ and this is use to help the audience to know where to read from. The title is the same font colour as the drop caps also the font colour is white and the background is a darker colour this means a wob.

On page 37, there is a picture
three people that are dressed as rock stars and there is no main text besides the
classic rock title that is in a box and some text above and the text is white
so it’s a wob because the background is darker than the text.
Classic Pop Magazine
Classic pop comes out monthly and it focuses on pop and pop artists/bands and it is owned by anthem publishing which is set in Bath and a British magazine company founded by Jon Bickley.
Front cover
The title of the magazine is at the top left corner and the masthead is the word 'classic pop' and the word 'classic' is a wob because of the darker background and the text is in white and this is use to get the audience attention due to it stands out very clearly for the audience to see it..
The picture that is on the front cover is three heads of three different people and the positions of their heads ate like an triangle and the shots that were used is a close up of three artists that is in a band.
The barcode is vertical and it has the price, date, issue number and who owns the company.
The housestyle of the text is capital letters and its the same for every word besides the words that are not in capital letters and those words are in the box with pictures of Artists and the words 'O' in 'POP'
Content page
The pictures is on the top/middle part of the page and the text is at the bottom and on the left side it's the name 'contents'. One big picture and two smaller pictures below it.On the left side at the bottom their is a text saying 'follow us' and the position they put in in is good because when the audiences reads the content page they will have to look down because all the information about the contents is at the bottom of the page so when they look down on the page they will see classic pop has a Facebook page, twitter and instagram and can lead the magazine to become more popular due to majority of people liking their pages on social media.
Double Spread page
On page 24 there is an title that is at the top of the page and the text is in white this means that it is a wob because of the background and the white text, also the main text starts of as a kicker because the first word 'y' is in an bigger front size than the rest of the text also it could be an drop cap also.
There is text on this that is all in capital letters and this means that the text is important also it's a larger font size than other text.
On page 25, Theres an picture of a man with sun glasses on and it's a medium shot of the man.
Kerrang is an British magazine about rock music but it's more about heavy metal/rock than rock and rock artists it is owned by Bauer
media, a conglomerate company, that is set in Germany.
Front cover
The word kerrang is the title of the magazine also it’s the masthead
and the headline also, its behind the main image and this a code and convection.
The barcode is vertical and the price and the date is with
the barcode and this is a code and convection
Content page

On the content page, there is an medium size picture that is on the top part of the magazine that contains a wide long shot of four members from fall out boy then under that there's the content and different parts of the contents page has an headline for each category so its an cross head to make it easier for the reader(audience) and that's the purpose of it.
Double spread page
On page 40 there a headline that is in red and it takes the top bit of the page and the background design behind it is an spider web and the spider web goes in to the text a bit of the text.
There's an drop cap the word is 'O' as you can see on the image on the left the first paragraph, the letter 'O' is in red and it's in capital.
The text that is below the headline is a deck because its a short summary of the article and mentions the part of the article that gets the audience attention.
On page 41 there is an medium shot of a Maria Brink wearing an hat looking to the right.
Jazz Journal magazine
Front cover
There are three columns that contain different things on the

hand and the prop is a smartphone and it’s an medium shot of the man’s head to
his waist and there is an pentagram and in each triangle there is a person
and all of them are wearing masks and all of theses people are a member of slipknot. The word Slipknot is an wob because the font
colour of the word slipknot is in white and the background is an dark red
colour and this is done because so the audience can see the bands name better than if it was in a darker colour text.
