NME - Magazine Reasearch


NME magazine, just like with Uncut and Q has the basic ingredients of a magazine: The Masthead NME, main coverline 'Florence takes America', smaller coverlines such as 'Pete on life support' and 'Jack White, Gerard Way... Joe Lean?". There is a barcode, price for the magazine, date and issue number.
Most imprtantly, there is the main image. This particular image is of Florence from Florence and the machines. This makes the magazine attractive, especially is you like Florence from Florence and the machines. Whether you like them or not, they are well known and very new and cool.
The yellow cab she is exiting from works with the title 'Florence takes on America' because a yellow cab represents in a way, America, more specifically, New York. NME are representing America through the yellow cabs.
Florence's pose, is set to look a little weird. The bottom part of her body, which also emphasises her fantastic legs, makes her legs look a little bit drunk and weak. The top half of her body s pushing out of the cab and she appears determined. The whole pose looks rather sexy, but I think NME magazine is having a joke; I think they are trying to say 'she can try, but I doubt she'll succeed'.
