I am choosing to look at this magazine particularly for the layout, with it using common conventions when it comes to the placement of the features on the page. At the top of the cover, there are features above the masthead, which implys that this story is of particular importance and appeal to the audience. The feature itself is about Bob Dylan, someone who is of course very recognisable to the average MOJO reader, and therefore instead of using his full name, it only says 'Dylan', making the article and Bob Dylan himself to appear to have significant importance.
I have decided to use some of the conventions that are present on this front cover to my own, as I plan on also using a bar above the title of the magazine to list some of the artists that are featured inside. Also, the use of a round shape that is slightly cut off is another part of this front cover that I may use in my own, as it allows for a more interesting layout rather than having just standard features around the side.
