Soap front cover deconstruction

To create my Hollyoaks magazine i had to deconstruct other soap magazines, so i could understand the codes and conventions. I did this in Microsoft Power Point. It was important to deconstruct the magazines, so i could see which style of magazine i liked best, and encorporate the codes and conventions in my own magazine. By doing this on powerpoint i could highlight the features, and the different features of the different style of magazines would be clear. I found that most magazines have similar features, such as, mastheads, cover star, subheadings etc. But the different magazines had different colour schemes and fonts to suit their genre.
There are two types of soap magazines, 'classy' or 'trashy'. I deconstructed both so i could see the difference in them.
