Kerrang! Evaluation

From my research i found that all of the Kerrang! front covers followed the same conventions. This included a consistant style, size and colour of the masthead, with a cut out layered image of the artist in the for front. The consistancy of the masthead gives Kerrang! magazine a clear, recognisable image almost like its ID. Having the image displayed in the centre of the front cover, cut out and layered allows it to capture in the target populations attention. The repetition of words such as 'exclusive', 'win' and 'plus', which boost status and also draw the reader in. All contents pages have the same characteristics and follow the same colour schemes of black, yellow and white. The double page spreads always featured a large image of the artist with the text around it and a colour scheme that clearly reflected the artist.
