Inspirational Texts - Magazine

This is my first inspiration text as Glamour a monthly womens lifestyle magazine has created a special edition for seperate regions. I was inspired by Katy Perry wearing a tshirt with the name of the region on and the " Birmingam this is for you" I think that it the black text stands out with the pink and orange and I like the use of shape to include the price.  Its going to differ from my magazine because mine will be fully based on the region where as the Glamour magazine includes 8 special pages on the region and the rest of the magazine is for the full country.  I like the happy pose and the free night out where you live offer to help attract in the readers. I also was inspired by the simple, readable text fonts in this magazine as its all clear  which stands out to the reader.

Another of my inpirations is the North Sheffield magazine Contents Page. It fits in with the colour scheme of the front cover also and Its a contents page thats filled with lots of information. I like the advertisements such as facebook and twtter logos at the bottom which I could include within my magazine. Ive noticed that this regional magazine includes a lot of adverts.
 

What I like about this magazine is the pose of the model on the cover she looks confident happy and healthy which appeals to a women audience.  Compared to magazines such as heat , look and grazia there is less information on the front. I also like the coloured scheme and I really like how the magazine includes alot of places within North Sheffield which I also will do for my Newcastle Magazine. The double page in the magazine about the carnival inspires me to create a festival page in Newcastle. I like that theres both a lot of text and pictures  .

Angel Magazine is one of Londons regional magazines and once again I can see there isnt a lot of detail in the cover. The headings are spaced out which isnt what we see on weekly womens lifestyle like Now.  I also really like the colour scheme its simple but Bold and only uses Black , White and Silver. I think I will also make my front cover have less on it taking inspiration from these regional magazines.






Within Grove magazine another london region magazine We can see a article on a musician who was made in Notting Hill.  I like the layout and the pose of the musician.






Examples Of USA New York Magazine which obviously only focus's in New York Region.
