Q magazine analysis:
The image used represents the fairly broad genre(s) of music that the magazine covers. The main alternative/indie style of the magazine is created as the main image is a mock up the famous Sgt Pepper album by the Beatles, of which is widely known and is one of the most recognisable album covers of all time. This constructs the idea of accessibility to the magazine, and is reinforced through the amount of artists featured in the image, of a wide range of music genres.
This may be used to influence my magazine, as if I choose to create a magazine covering a large musical demographic, I may include images with artists of more than one genre, as well as using widely recognised music 'symbols' which helps to appeal to my target audience as it allows them to feel as though they may belong to an exclusive group of people that understand these references.
