1. In the Kerrang magazine, all 3 band members are in front of the masthead, but in mine, just the main model is in front of the masthead. I did this because I wanted there to be a clear main band member to the audience, and by blocking the head of the boys on the outside, the boy in the middle gains more authority and importance, and that is what I wanted to create.
2. When I saw the cracked effect on the masthead on the Kerrang magazine, I decided that I wanted to use elements of this, and have an effect rather than just a plain font. My masthead has a smudge effect on it to show it's 'rough around the edges', I think this relates to my audience, because the stereotypical rock magazine reader, is rough around the edges and rouged.
3. In the Kerrang magazine, when I saw the list, I thought it looked like a really good idea. I decided to do the same, but unlike the one in Kerrang, I didn't write 'PLUS:' at the top, and I didn't use bullet points. I just did a simple list but made it longer than the one in Kerrang. The one on Kerrang was on a plain black background, so I think it needed the extra bits like the bullet points and the 'PLUS:', but because mine was on a checked shirt, I think it is unnecessary and looked better without it.
4. Like Kerrang, I used 3 other images along with the main picture, but in my other 3, i cut them out to make them look like they were coming off the page instead of just a simple image. I also spread them out by putting 2 on the left and 1 on the right, I think this was more effective than the Kerrang magazine, as it split the page up and give it more than one focus point, making the product look more appealing.
