This moodboard briefly presents some of my favourite magazine covers that I came across during my research. The top row is made up of modern magazines whereas the bottom row is made up of older ones.
Although there are some differences the similarities are also evident.
Perhaps the simple nature of the older magazines compared to the modern ones could be reflective of life once being simple, and how busy it has become- with the addition of new technology and celebrities. Also, the multiple sell lines on newer covers suggests that it is now harder to sell magazines to people, that the creators have to try even harder to sell their product nowadays. This could be because most things in the present time are televised, or published online, so people do not need to spend money to get the same information (and possibly more) in a quicker, more efficient way.
