Jazz magazine
The masthead is blue, this is a cool colour which creates a sense of calm which is what jazz music does.It also is a convention of jazz magazines to use this colour. This stands out on the black and white picture.It adds another layer to the picture and makes it stand out of the page. The font is sans serif . The mastehead is also in the top left of the page .
The image is very clear , and is of high quality this allows the magazine to charge a higher price . The image is black and white which a convention for jazz because it is used throughout many jazz magazines. It also has a solo artist male which is normally done with the genre. He is wearing a suit jacket which is a code for jazz. He is holding a trumpet which is also a code for jazz because its what most jazz music consists of . The star is an image which supports Dyer's theory . The star is very relaxed and looks causal however, they would not look like this in their everyday life. He looks away from the camera which creates tension. 
The font is sans which breaks conventions for the genre of jazz because it is not normally used. The font ranges in size the main feature article is bold and big. They range in colour . The blue text is more important. There is a box out which is in the shape of a circle which is very rare for a jazz magazine to have . 
There are 3 feature articles and 1 main feature article which is the main story inside .
How this research has influenced my planning and creativity?
- I love the photography I think i will use this for my magazine
- I dont like that there isnt much text on the cover
- I like image the star creates
