I am going to research a copy of the magazine NME. NME always have their masthead at the top in the left-hand side corner, this is because it is a lot easier for customers to see from a glance what magazine it is when they are stacked on a shelf in a shop. The main story in this magazine is clearly visable via the image and the text; Green Day. The colour green is used quite a bit on the front of this magazine, including on the text 'Green Day', which relates to the word 'Green" in Green Day. By putting the word 'exclusive' in makes the audience want to pick up the magazine and buy it so that they can read the story. The image is off the main member in the band Green Day, playing his guitar. It looks like this image was took whilst they were playing a concert, by the expression on his face and his body language, also you can see a set of drums behind him, the image behind him however fades slightly so that it doesn't distract the reader from the main bit of the image. At the bottom of the magazine are some more smaller stories, so that if the main story didn't catch the attention of the customer, then maybe they may be interested in some of the smaller stories, therefore will bu the magazine, which is also the case with the side story in the box with the image. At the top of the magazine shows that there are some things to be won in a competition, this again is a way of attracted the reader towards the magazine and spending money on it to buy it. The colours are quite bright, and the red of the NME is the brightest which stands out more and therefore is easier to see.
