Contents Page Analysis

This contents page has a very similar layout to the average Kerrang contents page. The traditional title ‘contents’ appears as yellow writing on a black background. This will definitely appear in my magazine contents page. As always a quote appears under the title to interest and possibly intrigue the reader. The pages listed under the title ‘this week’ are down the right hand side and subcategorised by titles in the traditional yellow writing and black background. The main featured image is in the top left and is the biggest image on the page making it the most eye-catching. This is the article the editor believes will be the most popular and therefore is made the easiest to read. The rest of the featured article images are the same size and set out in an orderly fashion. I will use this style model when creating my magazine contents page. The numbers are set out in the yellow writing and black background showing that this is a running colour scheme throughout the page. The bare white background is also an attribute that I will be following. The note from the editor in the top left would also be a convention that I will follow.
