Title Block Analysis Of 'Rolling Stone'

I have analysed 3 title blocks in detail. I mention the assumptions each title block makes of potential reader and because of the colour, font and style of the title block, what audience it could be trying to target. These title block analysis would help me decide and focus on the title block design i use for my magazine and make sure the design matches the correct target audience and makes spot on assumptions on my magazine. Below I is the 'Rolling stone' title block analysis.



The title block suggests that this style of title and font appears to belong to a Blues Genre Magazine.
The colour red is the most expresses an intense colour and is quite commonly connected with passion. Which could indicate; that the magazine is passionate about the music and information it includes, and also wanting to be able to target people who are also passionate about music.
The font used echoes the era of 50’theme appearance and the th3 fact that its in 3D suggests that it’s trying to make the appearance look modern at the same time. It seems as though that the two combination of the 50’s look and the modern 3D effect is used to keep the traditional style but modernised with the 3D effect to be able to fit in with the modern world society.
The title infers that it could be something being carried on from different points. Rolling stone. Roling indicates something moving continuously and the stone could be the used to emphasise the continuous movement. Which could as a whole b suggestion the magazine is a successful Blues Music Magazine
As the font suggest its emphasising the 50’s font look theme it could b targeting the older generation who would be people from the 20th Century but the 3D effect suggests that it is also trying to apply a modern effect to perhaps try and target the much younger generation from the late 20th Century and the early 21st.
