Research for Magazine - Magazines displayed in stores

This task required me to go into a news-agents or shop that sold a range of magazines and take images of the chosen layout of the magazines and then analyse why they are where they are.

The Magazines all seemed to be ordered in height and age order the magazines aimed at children and toddlers are placed at the bottom where the children can easily see them and reach them. Above these are the Movie, Music and Gaming magazines as these are often aimed at teenagers and young adults and so are placed in the appropriate location. Above these can be found magazines associated with the older generation such as Health, Beauty, Cooking and Fishing. 



This image, you can see that they are a lot of different magazines. The most successful magazines are the ones with the big clear titles that stand out they use bright colours and unique fonts, they say one word that sums up the magazine this immediately the reader know if they want to keep on reading. These bits are made clear as if the magazine is not put at the front that is the only bit that can be seen so it is important to make sure its clear and concise.
