2. The masthead 'NME' is in capitals to assemble an appeal, to make it big, loud and clear and the colour used red to also create an eye catching effect. The middle is a rock star which he is playing an electric guitar and he has a vivid facial expression which shows attitude and lots of passion for music in which the fans can relate to. The main image in the middle brings a strong sense of energy and loudness and is a good stereotype to represent the entire cover itself. The image of the people on the bottom of the cover who are supposedly the music fans are waving there arms in the air and cheering which shows a positive, fun and active feeling. The headings near the bottom of the cover are slanted to the side to make it good looking and cool to teenagers. Magazine cover analysis
