Mojo Analysis

Target Audience:
This magazine is a Rock genre, and is mainly aimed at white males between the ages of 16 and 25. The target audience is usually in the social grade C to D.

Masthead:
In the masthead, the word mojo is in a large white font. This is the name of the magazine, and is half covered up, but this gives a sort of 3D effect to the main image. Also, in the masthead there is a minor image. The Bold typography will attract an audience, because it will stand out on a shelf, and they will want to buy it.

Colour Pallet:
The colours used on the cover, are red, yellow, blue and white, but the main colour of the magazine is blue. These are bright colours, and will stand out, this will also attract an audience, because it is appealing to the eye. Also, the bright, bold colours help show the genre of the magazine.

Layout:
The layout of the magazine is quite cramped, but it looks appealing and stylish like that. The Cover is also showing what is in the magazine, and shows images of some of the people in the magazine, and it also shows other things about interviews and reviews, to attract an audience, and to make them want to read it, because it makes the magazine seem interesting and more exciting than others.

Images:
The main image is a medium close up, and it shows Dave Grohl, musician from Nirvana and the Foo Fighters. This image will attract an audience, because people will want to hear about the foo fighters, so will buy the magazine. There are two minor images, but one of them is a CD cover. The Other image shows David Gilmour performing. The minor images also show the audience a little about the content of the magazine. 

Typography:
All the images have teasers to reveal more about the stories in the magazine, like next to the main image it says "Foo Fighters Exclusive!" This makes the audience want to read it. The Typography is quite simple. But that is so each bit of writing on the cover isn't to long, because if it was too long, it would bore the audience, and they wouldn't want to read it.

Other Features:
The barcode and date is also on the cover, this is small and in the bottom right corner. It is like this, because if it was too big, it would make the magazine look odd and boring.
