magazines part 2

image based magazine covers- the most common magazine cover these magazines use photographs of real life objects on the cover. most often they are one or more people, looking at the camera and smiling. these are mostly found on celebrity and fashion magazines. but it is not always people. sometimes it can be landscape or pets or inanimate objects.

illustration based magazine covers- these are the oldest magazine covers, since in the 1800s, photographs were not easily accessable. the most recognizable magazine that still uses illustration based magazine covers in the new yorker. illustration based magazines are mostly used now to show something funny or different.

type based magazine covers- they're not as common as the other two but they are used to show shocking news. the big fonts and crazy headlines are used to grab readers attentions and get them to want to read the story in the magazine. handwritten and calligraphy have become more popular within type based magazine covers recently.

concept based magazine covers- can be a mix of all three from above. they are used to show strong messages. the challenging thing about concept-based covers is that they need to be easily understandable to the reader so the reader doesn't get bored and not want to buy it. they are usually seen in business magazines.

the relationship between words and pictures on a magazine is that if the words and pictures don't match, it looks unappealing to the reader and pushes them away. the words and pictures need to work together.
