comparing the colour scheme for both magazines, the top one is very basic. It consists of grey, black and white with a hint of other colours in the letters. Whereas the bottom colour scheme is not clear. It consists of black, red, yellow and white. The top colour scheme I think is more effective, as it brings attention to Lady Gaga. but the bottom brings very little attention towards the image.
The feature stories on the top magazine are more organised and a lot easier to read, it also looks a lot more formal. The feature stories with the bottom magazine are not organised and all over the place, making it less formal but may appeal more to the magazines younger demographic.
Lady Gaga is on the cover of the top magazine, and
You Me At Six is on the cover of the bottom magazine. Both fit the target audience for the magazines and so are both effective, of course Lady Gaga is more famous and has more fans and so is going to sell more magazines.
The font used on both magazines is easy to read and does not over power anything on the magazine.
Overall the top magazine is better, as the magazine itself is more well known to the masses, they have a better colour scheme and a bigger star on the cover... all making it more likely to catch someone's eye.
