Magazine Essentials Parts

Masthead (Tittle, Logotype, Logo, Nameplate)

The masthead is the tittle that is often in the front cove by the side, or the top. (Also works on the bottom). The tittle has to be somewhere where it does not entirely covers the main object or person in the front cover.

Dateline

Month and year and rarely with the price. Some magazines dates are a month ahead when it is released.

Main Image

The images in the magazines are mostly portraits and most of the time the face is big enough and the person is making full eye contact to the camera. The person in the front cover mainly means that there will be talking about him/her in four or two pages at least. The main image gives it more interest and entrainment.

Model Credit

The model credit is rarely on the magazines such as Fashion magazines or in other like a quote on a politic or science/technology magazine.

Cover Lines

Cover lines are the tittles of the important articles inside the magazine and sometimes the most interesting ones. (Health, Love, Money, other.)

Main Cover Lines

The main cover line is the main topic or article in the magazine.

Left Third

The Tittle of the magazine is on the side so when it is on a shelf and you can't see the cover you can at least see the tittle or logo.

Bar Code 

The Bar Code will sometimes come in the magazine with the published dates or something like that.

Selling Line

Selling Line is the description of the magazine or advertisement like "Best #1 magazine in the world for Health issues"
