Research #5 Essence

The final magazine I am going to analyze is the December 2017/ January 2018 Essence magazine. This magazine feature Kofi Siriboe. The main colors of this magazine is gray and purple. The title of the magazine is purple and it is centered at the top of the magazine. I have notice that a lot of magazines have the head of the person featuring in their magazine cover parts of the magazine title. In this magazine Siriboe is covering the two middle letters in the title "Essence." The article blips are located at the sides of the magazine like most magazines. The color of these article blips are white, black, and yellow.

Half the magazine is composed of advertisements - also like many other magazines. The ads in this magazine are mostly clothing brands, makeup or department stores, for example the magazine has advertisements on JCPenney, and Loreal.

the article that I first flipped to was titled "We Didn't Do Better," with a picture directly on top. To start the article the first letter was bigger and bolder than the rest of the text. Quotes in the magazine also bigger and bolder than the rest of the text. In the article the text would wrap around the pictures.
