DA VIBE
This magazine from
VIBE uses the colours black, white and gold.
The target audience is for males and females aged 16-30 and
have an interest in rap music.
The colour gold is the colour of success, achievement and
triumph. Associated with abundance and prosperity, luxury and quality, prestige
and sophistication, value and elegance, the psychology of this colour implies
affluence, material wealth and extravagance. This attracts the reader as it
contrasts from the colour black.
The colour white on the main title also attracts readers
because it is bright and it also contrasts with the black background and image.
The black in the background brings out the image and the
other colours used in the front. Black gives it a more mysterious look.
XBOX official Magazine
The main colours used in this magazine are white, green and
black. These three colours are used specifically to suit the target audience
and the genre of the magazine itself. The target audience is mostly males but
can be females that also use the console ages 14-30. This magazine will draw in
people that like playing video games and that own an XBOX console themselves.
Throughout the magazine the colours which are used on the
cover are also linked to the different articles and pictures included in it.
The colour green represents the main colour of XBOX. The reason why this colour
has been used is because it will stand out to XBOX fans and it will make them
pick it up and maybe buy it. The colour green also stands out and will also
attract the reader into picking it up. The white is mainly used for the
subtitles.
