Extra analysis on regional magazines front cover

Regional magazines analysis




This regional magazine is a local magazine that is only based in the north, and covers the specific areas in that location. also the cover stories are written on the front cover of the marine in green and white front this gives a nature vibe to the front cover as it suggests that the regional magazines focus is on the nature and environment of there local area. At the right hand side of the regional  magazine it states how the magazine is layout inside and out. for example they tell out there feature cover stories as well as what actives and the benefits of the life in there local area. Therefore the information provided is only valued to people who are living in that area as it would not be useful if this was given to somebody that was living in Ealing or Greenford of the west London areas.

The main image of the regional magazine is of the river beside the town house (castle) this suggests the money and wealth of the local attraction in this local area seeing as it is the primary focus for the readers. this makes the reader intrigued and inane of the image and hat it represents. The colour scheme of this regional magazine it light pastel colour such as green, blue and white. This helps to suggest that the area of the regional paper is surrounded by nature.






The master heading is in big bold front in the colour black that allow it to stand out against the white simple background the colour black also suggests the dominate feel to the regional magazine. The subheading is underneath the master heading in the same front and colour but appears in lower case lettering than the heading being in capital letters. The main image on the regional magazine is of a man and women in a warm embrace in the middle of a traditional building. This shows the culture of the local area this magazine is disturbed to, also adding to this there is not cover lines, pugs or strapline on the magazine that instantly shows that it is a simply magazine. 


However the downfall of this magazine is that the reader is not able to know what features are highlighted in the regional magazine but having said that the regional magazine has a list of topics on the right hand side of the magazine that tells us the things that are in the magazine. Also the list of topics are in different light soft colours , this might indicate that inside of the regional magazine the colour on each page are related to the subject topic.
