I like this one as it's simple, the font is out there and eye-catching and draws you towards the photo of the celebrity. There is a lot of content but the text is small, drawing you in a lot more. I like the lack of colour, apart from Lily's top which is very eye-catching. I will consider this affect for my own spread.
This is another one I like. I don't want to include much writing in my own spread as my target audience are usually put off by masses of writing. I like the way the character takes over the majority of the page and how big the font is. I also like how the yellow sections the page in half.
I like this one because it's mainly an article. The photos of the band dominate the pages and the title is a quote, which is quite eye-catching. I like the small font and the simple layout but most of all I like the use of the photos.
After looking at 3 good examples. I've decided that article 1 and 2 will influence my work the most. I like the use of a star vehicle in both of them, especially in 'Dan in Real Life', you see the star first and you're instantly drawn to look, the bright yellow draws you in even more. I also learnt the positioning is very very important. When you're flicking through a magazine you look at the right page and only stop when you see something interesting. 'Dan in Real Life' is a great example, when you're flicking through the right page is what you see first and if you have a star vehicle against a bright yellow background then people are sure to stop at your page. For this reason I plan to have my star vehicle on the right side of my page. At first I wanted to create an article or interview, now I just want a quick synopsis of the 'latest film' staring the celebrity I'm including on my spread. I think this way people wont look at my page, see loads of writing and get turned off. I'll include a attention-drawing title, lots of colour and less writing.
