Analysing Closer cover

Media

18^th September 2012

I decided to talk about magazine called “Closer”. It’s a magazine I read the most. It gives me the information I want to receive from this magazine is “Closer” is closer to celebrities’ life, and closer to what you are interested in. Their slogan is “Celebs + Real Life+ Fashion+ TV” which give us very simple idea of what the magazine contain “Celebs” short cut for celebrities it makes me think as this is put in a slang the audience target is based on teenagers. ”Real Life” connote to me they are not interested in any rumours they only speak the truth, “Fashion” the magazine is promising us the news trends and “TV” stands for TV progress, the magazine in also contains TV programs now that might suggest it not only for teenagers but also for wider verity of audience. Although the cover looks like it’s only about “celebs” it’s not really. Magazine “Closer” hasn’t used to much colours only colours are bright pink and yellow there are some other colours like blue and red to make it more stand out although pink and yellow are doing a good job already those colours making the magazine more professional and it make the target audience want it . The subtitles are written it red to get the audience straight to the main subject. There are 2 really big subtitles which really catch the eye of the reader the font is big and very understandable. Every word that has been put in the cover are not randomly chosen they’re there to shock and to interest people.
