Q magazine annotation.

Each band member is looking straight at the camera direct gaze while its looks like they are breaking though the camera screen. They are doing this because there album was a big hit when it was released at the end of last year so there album was a breakthrough.
The title of the magazine is Q and I think this could mean that the magazine asks the questions and the musicians give the answers.
You know the magazine by the look because Q magazine always has a red box in the left corner with the letter Q in white and this is so the readers know where to look and also so it stands out to the buyers.

Where is says ‘Play time for the Killers’ there are two arrow heads so this mean that the killers features inside the magazine. And also ‘the 50 best albums of 2008’ had two arrow heads so this suggests it also can be found inside the magazine. Also the killers is shown in red writing and in capital letters and this is so it stands out better so that one off buyers know there are in the magazine.

The main cover line is the ‘Kings of Leon Breakthrough’. This is much bigger size font than the rest, and to make it stand out it has a white background around the writing as the magazine is dark colour so it makes it stand out.

The main picture covers a bit of the masthead. But you can still see what the magazine is.

The barcode has all the information needed like the price and date.








The page consists of one main picture and three other little pictures around the page. The main picture is off the artist Craig David with the car behind him so we know the article is something to do about cars. We know this also because at the top of the page it quotes “Beat the track record”.

Down the side of the page the name Craig David is in bold light blue writing, so this is how we know who he is. It also says he is the R&B smoothie so this is why the writing is in light blue because it is a soft gentle colour.
Also the page is very bright and soft as the page is light blue and the pictures are very colourful so this could connote that he is a very upbeat person who is smooth.

The page number is in the bottom of each of the pages; it is written in white with a black box round the writing to so it helps create a house style, also next to the number is the Q.

The main picture consists of Craig David looking away from the camera while he is moving so he is gazing off the page

The start of both the paragraphs starts with two drop down capital T’s.
There are two columns of text on each page and they are set out like a newspaper, and they are set around each of the pictures.
