Q magazine

The use of the large image of James Blunt works really effectively as the readers will be immediately attracted to his face. I like how they have chosen to do a close up of his face as it contrasts with the other contents page. I think this shows more confidence in the magazine as James Blunt is a famous popular musician but if the audience don’t like him it will make them uninterested in reading further, stereotypically speaking.

I think the use of ‘Features’ and ‘Every month’ category works really well as it gives the reader an insight as to what’s in the magazine monthly and I have researched into a few Q magazines and they always have pages on famous musicians and bands as in this one it focus’s on the Stereophonics and James Blunt.

The expression on James Morrison’s face seems mysterious as if he is thinking about something which creates interest for the readers. The image against the white background I think is a good choice as it doesn’t stand out completely against the background as not to distract attention away from the text.
