Front page, Contents page and DPS for 'NME'

  • Masthead- Largest font size to attract the audience. this reflects the genre of the music, rock is very bold and direct, just like the text type.
  • No skyline because the picture and the main cover line are the most important 
  • Main cover line- "Haim, get the picture"- second largest font to attract the audience, to draw them in.
  • Picture- looking straight at the audience to attract the audience. The picture symbolises the article that is inside
  • Barcode and price on the right size 





  • contents arranged in columns t make it more clear and easier to understand, shows that it is a weekly magazine 'Inside this week' shows that this magazine is quite popular and is read alot 
  • numerical order so the audience can find the page they want too read.
  • colour scheme reflects the front page and the genre type, the red and black reflects the rock theme.
  • images reflect the genre, the artists reflect the rock genre 






  • Has a introduction and conclusion , is more like a story
  • The language used is formal and reflects the genre type.
  • has no standing out header to keep the attention on the text itself
  • Drop caps (T,T) to attract the reader and add a bit of colour.
  • pictures are clues into the type of music, looking straight at the audience. they are the same as front page.
  • colour scheme reflects the contents and front page however the pink at the bottom doesnt not reflect the genre type
  • written in columns  to make the text easer to read and make the text look smaller than it is.

  1. Again, too brief! Very little analysis of image, shot type, genre. Nothing on journalistic language used in the DPS. Very little on meanings / connotations. This is not enough for A level work!
