Introduction to Magazine cover convections

 1) Title of publication, central image and colour scheme first I believe that the title of publication is important because it makes it easy for the consumer to see the title of the magazine also because it is very eye catching which is what the company is aiming for. secondly the central image although not all magazines will use this i think its important because it tell your audience what they would expect from that type of magazine and also colour scheme because it makes the magazine look clean and it can also show what type of 'vibe' the magazine is going for.

2)Slogan-we see this at the top of the title of the magazine saying 'celebs... and so much more'

'flash'/cover line/sell line -we see this all around the closer magazine with flash lines saying Posh's baby shock

title of publication-we see this in the top third of the magazine the title of the magazine 'closer' 

name checks-we see this at the bottom of the closer magazine giving the names of some mothers names Danielle and Marice 

language-we see this in the top right of the magazine with the statement 'Cheryl's secret double dates'

bar code, date and price-we see a bar code at the bottom right of the magazine usually there to be used at the checkout and out of the way so that it doesn't get of the way of the magazine

Narrative features also communicate meaning with mise-en-scene and props with April's knives which communicate to the audience that something dangerous is going to happen or a fight is going to happen. 4)
