question 3
representation of gender is normally have different colours, for example male magazine covers are normally in the colours of black, dark blue or grey because those colours are normally represented with males. With woman the normal stereotype colours for a woman are pink, purple and red, because this is the sort of colours which are represented with woman. Also the cover lines tell the audience different stories, for example in male magazines the normal cover lines are 'how to get a six pack in 1 month!!' and in woman magazines such as 'Ok' magazine the normal cover lines are about celebrities and what they are doing in their lives.

The typography of the magazine is sans serif to make the text stand out and catch the readers eye so that it makes you want to read the magazine.

Colour Connotations In Magazines
Different colours can convey different meanings or connotations to the viewer
Orange - Baking
I have chosen the colour orange because it stimulates creativity to help you feel relaxed and melo to keep you in a good mode, also it brings out emotional Expression so if you are feeling angry it can relieve anger.
Red - Sports
Yellow - Gaming
Green - Ponies
