Exploring techniques/Ideas


This masthead however is extremely effective. Straight away I can tell which genre this magazine would be, rock. Firstly, the shattered glass effect which is displayed throughout the masthead implies loud music and connotes with the whole craze of 'heavy metal' ect. The whole image of a rock star with an electric guitar, a male with long hair smashing is guitar across the stage automatically springs to mind as we look at this masthead. Use of color and font types are also crucial and carefully connotated to the genre of the magazine; Black and white are associated with rock and the font type is generally big and bold letters which stand out behind the black which also implies loudness.
