Semiotics

To apply semiotics into my own work I will have the dominant image a certain size in order to grab the reader's attention and to show that the main double-page spread is about that person. The price will be low in order to attract a wider and/or younger audience. The dominant image will also be partially covering the masthead in order to show that the magazine is well-known. The coverlines will be smaller than the main sell-line and will be set away from the dominant image to show that they are not associated with that image. The colours will be quite dark and the font will be distorted/destroyed in order to show that the magazine will cover metal/alternative musicians.
