These are some digital magazines that I researched into during the week one lecture.
Manor Magazine:
- High Quality magazine
- Middle/ Upper class audience
- The reader would only benefit if they can afford everything advertised
- Elegant/ sophisticated font
- Luxery Photographs
- Empty white space makes a clean and professional design
- Would be read by a middle aged audience with a well established career and lifestyle.
- Topics such as fashion lifestyle culture and home.
You can tell this magazine is a high end magazine as it is very clean and professional looking, it also is used to tell some more expensive items and the advertisements inside the magazine are also some more expensive brands. However I think the design is very appealing to the eye, there is more imagery used than text on some pages, which makes sure the magazine is not overbaring. Online it has a very basic format of just clicking left and right for the next or pervious pages, but this is also reflective of a paper magazine. I was inspired by the seasonal issue of the magazine, having a seasonal release makes the content of the magazine more relevant to the reader at that moment of time, which may be a useful tool.
Pearl and Dean:
- Film News
- Reviews
- Cinema listings
- Easy to use and navigate
- Information Magazine
- Up to date
- Cinema going audience
- Those will read if they want to look further into what is on and seek the reviews of the film before seeing it.
- Light content such as film related articles about Hollywood
- Won Content studio of the year 2019
- Creative Imagery has 3D effect like the feeling in the cinema when the character feels as if they are coming out the screen, carried across into the magazine.
- Video and interactive content such as movie trailers too.
This digital magazine took more of the format of a website, however there are magazine elements such as articles and reviews that would be updated and changed very regularly. Some of the pages of this site may have too much information on them and images that are too small, this making it less appealing for the user to read or look through everything. But there are elements of this site that I like, such as the more interactive elements shown below, with the trailers as videos that the user can watch and be entertained by while gathering more knowledge of the the topic, and I also like the use of the icon buttons as navigation, making it more interesting and look different to other sites.
Suitcase Magazine:
- Travel company magazine
- Travel Advice
- Use of Imagery to persuade people to visit these places
- Offers advice on what to pack for different areas
- Modern audience who travel frequently
- Sophisticated audience, someone with enough money to go to these luxury places
- All you need to go travelling such as prices and places to stay
- You have to buy to read online
- Themed magazines such as some issues would be city breaks some would be hot destinations.
This digital magazine is very interesting, it is not what you would normally find in a travel magazine, it is very modern looking with lots of different content options, such as different cities to visit, all supported with imagery and easy to navigate too. Also this page is very linkable and can also be used as a shopping site as it has advice on what to pack, which links with items that can be brought externally from the site, which makes this site more commercial and this is something we could carry forward in our own designs, with places to visit linking with destination websites from outside sources. This website also has the social media links that will link to the sites social media, this may be useful for Andrew Grant as they can use the magazine to gain more followers who may or may not be looking for an estate agency and it will help to spread the word.
