Similar products analysis: The killers

The color of the background is effective as it complements the colored fonts of the cover lines. Also the fact that 2 of the cover starts are wearing sunglasses and 2 are not mixed in with the grey background gives it a retro look which bonds in well with the masthead. Also only part of the main cover line goes with the pictures of the cover stars. The cover starts are The Killers but on the main cover line they are joined with Jena Malone. This is a form of blocking and a screamer! It is a form of blocking as the art designer is trying to create something different by sharing the main cover line and is a screamer as it is saying to the reader that even though they are on the cover The Killers are not the only big interview in the magazine. Near the bottom of the cover the magazine has other cover line's which lets them know what else is in the magazine and the left third is very well know which will help sell magazines even if the reader can't see the whole title as the Ladygunn logo is a very well known logo.
