Masthead Analysis

In Ebony magazines, creators use white bold letters with a red solid fill background that attracts their audience. Sometimes the model may be in front of the masthead and sometimes behind it but, since it's big and bold  the masthead is always spotlighted on the cover page. 

In Essence magazines, it is similar to Ebony’s. However, Essence magazines are known for their color scheme. Unlike many other magazines such as Ebony, their masthead is different. It may include the same font but the color depends on the cover page color scheme. At times, the masthead will be behind the models . 

 


The “Black Enterprise'' magazine, have big letters similar to a country font. Most of their mastheads are white or black. However, it depends on the background of their main image as well.

As a young black female, I used my experiences and knowledge that will attract my target audience. My product engages with my audience through the issues presented and the ways the Afircan AMerican community  may come together to encourage one another. I included topics that my target audience will relate to the most because the older generation will  soon be gone and it will be left to the young generation. during my creation of the magazine, including  several topics that my audience may be immune to such as the latest youth that's inspiring and ways they can do the same.

Evaluation Question 4 :

How did you integrate technologies – software, hardware and online – in this project? Click HERE for video:  https://www.canva.com/ Throughout my project, software played a significant role.

This software provided me with different templates that I edited to my liking for my magazine. I used different websites for my research. For example, I used slideshare.net as I research the different magazine conventions. This benefited me by providing the magazine conventions and the definition and impact on each convention. I used pinterest to find inspirations for my magazine pictures.
