The layout of MOJO is......organised  which connotes (=has associations of)...........professional................By contrast, the layout of We Love Pop is. Busy/..crowded chaotic disorganised which connotes....a bubbly...feeling yes, good

The typography of MOJO is...more controlled and appropriate. which connotes (=has associations of)..........more respectable and suitable to older readers......... yes, good........ Yes; also there is specific typography for The Rolling Stones: the font is Celtic, so an artistic / historical vibe connoting that they want to be considered as ‘artistes’. They want to be treated / regarded as serious By contrast, the  typography of We Love Pop is. Bold, big and colourful. Very varied, a hotchpotch of styles..which connotes...big themes and wanting to get their point across.. less mature, less serious

 

The layout of MOJO is..........proper and appropriate...... which connotes (=has associations of)......seriousness.....................By contrast, the layout of We Love Pop is... bright/bold . which connotes. youth and fun....yes all true but what about the number of photos? MOJO is orderly with very few images which connotes a more subtle approach whilst WLP is crammed with photos of popular stars

 

The colour palette of MOJO is limited to ..softer much darker tones........which connotes (=has associations of).......more put together and elegant serious, adult but still portraying information....................By contrast, the colour palette of We Love Pop is.....bold and harsh tones.. is pink, blue, yellow, red which makes it seem happy and exciting. which makes it seem...younger people like brighter colours to draw their attention to it..

 

The language of MOJO emphasises ..professionalism and details....whereas the language of We Love Pop is ..slang and abbreviated to try and make it appealing for kids language... yes
