Exploring techniques/Ideas

This is also another masthead that we examined in great depth.
NME is one of the UK's most popular music magazine however has a certain genre like every other magazine. In this case, NME is a magazine, which explores Alternative, rock and indie music. However you cannot particularly tell this just by looking at the masthead, as it is quite formal. It is very bold and defiantly has the technique to stand out on a front cover as it is double outlined in a white then black, this creates the flicks in the letters to be much more sharper which could be seen as a musical incentive. Importantly, it is colored a very vibrant red, which infers importance and formality. Also because red is considered a main color in the print based media industry, For example, The Sun masthead.
