Liam Gallagher Q Cover
I have decided to take a look at this Q Magazine cover as inspiration for my own magazine, in terms of the layout, and how it maintains the magazine's house style. Q magazine keeps a theme colour of red, which effectively attracts the audience, annd the use of the highlighted text makes specific features stand out. The headline "OASIS ARE BACK" is in big bold font, as well as it being in colours that match the logo. This means that along with the logo, the headline will also automatically draw attention, because the red and white contrasts with the black and grey.
In terms of the layout of the other headlines, the text is not crowding the cover, allowing the audience to pay attention to the artist being featured. As well as this, the fact that the face of the artist is centred, brings more focus on the artist's eyes, and this is an effective way of engaging the audience and enticing them to want to buy the magazine and read further into Liam Gallagher's experience up to the comeback of Oasis.
I would like to adapt this style into my magazine, because the use of bright red as the magazine's theme colour is very effective, because it attracts people, and it defines the magazine's house-style, for the logo and the theme colour never changes, and it almost creates a brand of the magazine name and style. I would like to incorporate a bright and eye-catching house-style and colour scheme into my magazine, in a way that would appeal to young females (my target audience), and make my magazine seem defined and professional, but quirky and fun to suit my audience effectively.
