Magazine Analysis

All of the images in the Wired magazine are next to articles that they relate to. The masthead is black on white making sure that the masthead is popping. the image on the front cover is talking about why we do not have certain future technologies that we have been imagining for years. the background of the double page spread has the technology that the 2 pages are currently talking about. Image result for wired double spread

The audience of the magazine is people who take a great interest in incoming technologies of the world. Each double page spread has the future technology that they are talking about on the 2 pages. The genre of the magazine is science fiction, because all of the topic in the magazines talk about future imagined technologies. Features of the Wired magazine that I will not use in my magazine are the bars of to the side with little articles off to the side that talk about something completely different.

 

My next magazine for my magazine analysis is the .net magazine. The cover of this magazine has light colors to match with the white net masthead. When reading the articles in the magazine they tend to have a image that takes up the first half of the page and then goes on in subtitled paragraphs. This magazines main audience is people who enjoy the technologies of today, and that may want to learn more about certain machines. The double page spread have multiple images relating to the current article and have quotes that other people have said about the piece of technology. Image result for .net magazine

The magazine does an amazing job at pulling in its audience. The magazine when talking about the technologies mention all of the pro’s and if they ever mention a con they have yet another pro to counter it. People who would be interested in this magazine are people who are into learning more about what kind of technologies we people are using today.

 

The final magazine I’m going to analyze is the Popular Mechanics magazine. The mastheads of Popular mechanics is always a color against its background making sure you can see the masthead. This magazine talks about topics in the society of technology and what we should think of them. for example on major topic is if we humans can trust robots? It does an excellent job at explaining all sides of whether to trust them or not. Image result for popular mechanic magazineThe audience of this magazine is people who want to gather more information about topics that they are uncertain about. This magazine shows people information they may have never considered of ever even known making it easier to pick a side. The genre of this magazine is science fiction as well as non-fiction due to the fact that it talks about the future of the certain technologies and how they are today.
