Features Page Numbers

When comparing the preliminary task to the magazine cover you can see that the main images on both are taking up the majority of the pages which is conventional for said genres. They both have coverlines on the front highlighting different elements within both magazine and newsletter alike, however, the house style on the magazine is obviously more consistent and similar than it is on the preliminary task. The magazine also uses more content with the use of cover stories and coverline content. The magazine also shows my progression in marketing as it has a barcode, price and issue number, whereas the newsletter only has a issue number.

From looking at the contents you can see an obvious difference when comparing the two. Firstly the image on the preliminary task is a unedited wide shot, however, on my magazine contents there are two edited images using a close up and mid shot. My professional magazine has much more content than the preliminary task and it uses a range of colours, whereas, the preliminary contents only uses one colour and a small amount of content. Also route of the eye is used on the magazine contents as it is more professional and needs to attract the target audience more effectively than the preliminary contents.
