Magazine Project Research Women's Health

Women's Health
*Title- "Women's Health is covered by the women, a format like the previous two magazines. The articles are summarized in bold texts to catch the reader's eye.
*Cover- The reader is supposed to focus on the women on the cover to get them to say to themselves they want to look like that and buy the magazine. The use of yellow, blue, and white texts keeps the color scheme simple and easy for the reader to spot the different articles they might be interested in it. Its interesting how the previous 2 magazines also had this 3-colored color scheme.
*Page layout- The back of the front page is a full page picture ad, the next page is an article showing tips for self improvement. The next page is the table of contents for the magazine. The contents are simple and easy to read. And the next several pages consist of one page ad, one page article format, showcasing women, as the magazine is women's health. This format is used from page 3 to page to page 43, where the first long page article starts. The article ends on page 46, and a full page ad separates it with a main article which is a photo-shoot of women with quotes from her and ending with her ab workout, on page 54. The next two pages are a full page ad and an article, another ad, and then from pages 58-62 there's a fitness article of another women and her workout, There are at least one ad separating each article from each other, with not just this magazine, but the previous two also. On page 64 the food sections start, borrowing this format from the fitness section, but instead of workouts there's recipes and directions and instead of fitness ads there's food ads. (Pgs 67-84). The next section showcases women's fitness attire, and ads selling, you guessed it, fitness attire. (85-95). On pages 97-111, there's a long series of articles of a story called "wakey wakey, an adult bedtime story for shitty sleepers". The magazine ends with 2 final articles and quarter-paged ads on the last four pages. The last page has a full page ad. The magazine as a whole had lots of full paged photos of women, working out and such.
*Distribution- appeals to 10 million women around the world
*Awards- none


The thing I want to take from these magazines are the cover layout designs, The idea of lots of pages of in action photoshoots, drawings and annotations of workouts, food preparation and cooking directions, the ad-article-ad-article format, and the idea of featuring somebody well know for their fitness achievements and telling their story.
