Textual Analysis                                  



Layout.
The layout of this magazine is appealing to the eye, it has the mast head at the top in the background behind Lee Pomeroy's head. Also Lee is holding to bass guitars, this goes well as the magazine is called 'BASS' .

Colour.
The colours that the producers of 'BASS' magazine have used are bright and vibrant colours. They have used blues and reds. the mast head is red and the cover luines are blue.

People.
The celebrity that Bass magazine hs decided to put on the front of there cover is Lee Pomeroy he is a bass player who is well known in the music world. I feel it is good to show some one who is a bassest holding 2 basses and on the front cover of bass magazine.

Target Audience.
I think the Target audience for this magazine is people who are interested in guitars and musical intruments. I would say that it is for people who are most interested in bass guitars most.

Clothing.
The CLothes that Lee Pomeroy is wearing are smart casual but they are more casual than smart because he is weraring a shirt but it's not ironed and its slightly scruffy. I feel it is a good match to the type of music and to the style of clothes of clothes he ios wearing i can see the clear link.

Background. 
THe background on this magazine as it has been on all of them is plain white, they have done this so the main photo and the writing stands out. 

Wording. 
The words they have use on the front cover of this magazine are very eye catching and draw you into reading the magazine. Aslo they have made them bright colours for the same reason of drawing you into the magazine and they want you to buy it. 

Shot Type. 
The shot type on the front cover of this issue of DJ magazine is a medium shot, it's not a close up of their face and it's not a long shot where you can see their hole body you can see from their hips up.

Framing.
The writing on this magazine has been placed around the edge and is acting like a border which frames the magazine by coming in from the side of the magazing of which it is on. The producers of the DJ magazine have done this so it looks liuke the magazine front cover has a frame, i think this is very effective and makes the photo in the middle stand out more.

Overall Style.
The overall style of this magazine is well presented and i feel it is very appealing and if i was interested in music and bass guitars or guitars in general  would by it because it has information in containg facts about guitars and other muscial intruments.
