MEDIA LANGUAGE AND MOJO

 

Identify the different elements on the MOJO front cover and say if this is a genre convention:

 

Title- the title is MOJO which is in all capitals and in a white font which makes it stand out

Main splash / image: who is it and does it celebrate the person? How is it lit? Is the singer made to look important? How many other images are there? the main splash is of Neil Young who is a popular singer of country rock, is depicted in a warm orange light. this makes his features look soft and masks some of the wrinkles that could have come from aging. the lighting also makes him feel like a friendly person with a warm persona. we see one other image in the top right which shows another musician featured in the magazine. 

 

How 'busy' is the cover as a whole?

Are there cover lines (additional articles)? How organised are they? Do most music magazines have a similar number of cover lines (additional articles)? the cover is relatively busy with bright saturated colours, it has many cover lines which are aligned to the right. it is hard to say how many cover lines a magazine normally has as it varies between different magazines.

 

What are the main colours and is there an accent colour? the main colours are blue with white and yellow font. there are also light accents of black and red

 

Is there a cover mount and is this typical of MOJO? there is a cover mount and is very common of mojo.
