American magazines

Every ad that appears within a magazine always has some kind of purpose or intention for the readers. Most advertisements that are put in magazines are to persuade the readers of the magazine to want to buy the product being sold. A great amount of thought goes behind these ads to make it appealing to the eye and to control where the eyes move around the ad. In one particular magazine by the name of “Seventeen Magazine” the publishers first grab the readers attention by having Nina Dobret on the…

One pioneering, non-profit publication, Adbusters Magazine, seeks to shift cultural values, by using their design influence to sell ideas, rather than products. Embedded in social activism, the publication feels corporations are at fault for corrupting social environments, and aim to alleviate their efforts through a political process called “culture jamming.” By harnessing the power of their design skills for the benefit of humanity, Adbusters creates billboards, TV spots and advertisements…

Canadians placed taxes on magazines in 1920 on foreign magazines, then with technology came split run editions that they again added more tax. They placed policies on split run magazines 80 percent of magazine needed to be Canadian based content.

The Canadian culture has integrated some of the American culture just like America…

The meaning behind these shirts and the whole campaign in general was to help spread awareness of cyberbullying as well as help combat it. The question I pose is, how affective/successful was this…

The advertisements that I chose to examine and delve into was pulled from the magazine “Field and Stream”. The audience for the Field and Stream magazine encompasses a range consisting of young adult males to a more moderately aged male who enjoys hunting and fishing. Because of this audience, the colors have to automatically be hard and very aggressive. The two advertisements promote a new bullet that has come out. Advertisement A is Federal Premium’s new bullet called the “Trophy Bonded…

With the rapid dissemination of images via the Internet, celebrities who grace the cover of fashion publications are deemed or dismissed as household names faster than ever. Paper Magazine, a relatively unknown magazine, niche at best put Kim Kardashian on the cover of its November 2014 issue.

Another…

Advertising When you go to the newsstand and buy your favorite magazine, the profit from that sale makes money for the magazine. However, there is very little profit in this type of sale, called single copy sale, once you factor in the price it costs to make the magazine, the cost to transport it to the newsstand and the commission the magazine company must pay the newsstand company for providing space to sell its magazine. Magazines make far more money from subscriptions since they cut out at…
