To get an idea of the main features and attractions to a magazine front cover, I looked at two magazines; 'Kerrang' and 'NME'. From these two examples, I will start to base my ideas of what my magazine will look like, using their success within the music genre as they obviously are doing well.

From these two examples of magazine front covers, I have learnt that to create a successful, attractive and appealing cover for a magazine, it needs to have a set colour scheme which works well and to not look like paint splattered all over the place. I have also learnt that the page shouldn't be too cluttered but have enough on the front to make it look interesting and full of great articles/posters and to appeal to the reader. The plugs and buttons are a useful way of adding in extra enticements for the audience to see and help persuade them to buy the magazine.
