xfactor magazine front cover

The xfactor magazine is the only magazine at the moment that covers the pop genre.
L- the xfactor magazine is set out differently to a normal music magazine as it looks like gossip magazines suchas heat as the layout is more hectic and busy. the main photograph  is composed in a way that fills the whole front cover showing a head and shoulder shot but more of a close up. the colours of the magazine are not conventional because they are bright in your face colours of red and pink which make you catch attention to it and also there are different types of font all over the magazine as it seperates each story as there is so much going on on the front cover and using black and white text infront of the pink gives impact to the person looking at the magazine.
I- this magazine is a large company as it is part of the talent show xfactor on itv and the show has millions of viewers each week this shows that the magazine will have alot of publisity.
I- the magazine has both music and chat magazine elements and also encourages people to follow there dream of music as the xfactor is a show that finds new talent.
A- the target audience for this magazine is teenagers as the front of the magazine looks quite childish but as you open the pages the content inside could be for adults too as it has alot of fashion and gossip in the magazine aswell.
R- the representation of the magazine is shown to the audience as pop as the colours and the way is is layed out is quite loud and in your face also they havent stuck to a simple layout and have overlapped pictures asif its a collage of images and text. it also uses the latest pop celebs on the cover to show they are up to date with the whats in the top 40 and are popular with the people of today.
