Vibe music magazine research

The colours used in this are blue and pink vibrant colours this is used because his jacket collar is blue and the back ground is grey this way the colours stand out and is eye catching to the viewer and the pink used is because it works well with the blue and stands off of the background.
Three layers are used in styling this magazine the background, the writing and the picture in that order. The picture is on top as the main focus point the writing in in the middle and the mast is part hidden by the picture because the mast everyone one what it is and would take from the picture is it was on op and the writing goes around the outside to give the magazine a neat look.
I like this magazine as it has the one focus and stands out with the bright vibrant colours. With the picture looking straight into the camera you feel as it connects with you.
I believe the fonts used are just normal san serif because of the colours it doesn’t want to over do it and also just catching your eye you can see it but not wonder what is says because it is a bold good font.
There is a shadow given off around the central image this is done to give show that he is standing away from the background and so he doesn’t look just layered onto it.
This magazine form vibe in 1993 is very basic. There is very little photo manipulation except a picture to look like in the style of Litchstein, who done Pop art pictures, very much like the ones in comic books.
There is little colour difference it just the yellow and red which work well together but there is no change the colour are block. And the masthead it very bold and white to stand out although this is very basic and all can be done easily is Photoshop.
The only layering is the little box about Nas and Eminem. Although it is basic it is very eye catching because of the colour bit is not very pleasing to look at.
