Spin Magazine Front Cover Analysis.

I have chosen this magazine front cover, purely because of the popularity of this type of front cover being used throughout various magazines, Spin Magazine being a less notable one of the media.

The method of design with this specific magazine cover is fairly innovative, utilising the least amount of colour possible with the overall masthead and banners, whilst relying on the main image as the magazines main attraction. The fact that Florence has a very vibrant shade of hair colour, draws any looks towards the main image itself, helping identify what the particular magazine is centralised on, including the various bands being listed on the right hand side of the magazine. The way her hair style is, with a full fringe covering a large portion of her head, brings focus too her eyes, following a more personalised and concentrated look, for the readers viewing.

The Spin logo acts as a secondary, alluring feature,  it being the primary focus with identifying what magazine it actually is. The red logo colour is common throughout magazines, being utilised by other popular magazines such as 'NME'. Smaller features such as the buzzword in the top right corner, is printed in the same theme as the rest of the text of the magazine, black and white, again focusing on a plainer approach on the magazines less notable features, whilst retaining focus on the central image.
