The masthead of ‘KERRANG!’ Is very effective. The ‘cracks’ and within the text, gives it the effect that it’s smashing through the page.The use of a ‘free poster’ within the magazine attracts the audience, encouraging them to purchase the magazine. The main image of the band ‘Lostprophets’ is an effective image to use. The expression on the lead singer’s face is witty, making them look confident – suggesting that they’re good at what they do. The ‘pug’ includes dates and information of an upcoming event, relative to the magazine’s genre; rock. This information involves the reader, persuading them to attend these events. The words ‘WIN’ within the bright yellow star shape, involves the reader – giving them a chance to ‘win’ something – giving the magazine another purpose to be purchased.The colour scheme of blue, yellow, black and white is apparent through the whole of the cover. This makes the cover look more professional and well organised. The bright colours also attract attention the magazine.
