Instructions

Visit a newsstand or the periodical section of the library. Make a visual selection of your three top most appealing magazine covers. Get a copy of those three samples. You can scan them using a library scanner, or take a digital photo. Post the three samples to your blog, and analyze each.

Why are you drawn to this magazine? What are your thoughts on the use of the cover space? The typography? The photographs? The color used? The subject matter? The overall design?

Do you think this cover enhances the likelihood of an impulse sale at the newsstand? Do you think it is appealing beyond the expected reader demographic? Explain.
