The contents page uses several images organised nicely so they fit right on top of each other. There is a picture beside most of the page numbers showing us what we will find on that page. This also helps the reader because some may like to turn straight to the page from what they have seen in the image.
One of the contents pages has a colour scheme. Black on white and a touch of yellow. The other contents page has several different colours;
Yellow, Blue, Red, Orange. The information on this magazine is organised by the coloured boxes. For every change of colour, there is a change if information, separated by sub-headings. This tells us that the magazine is organised. There is a promotional feature for this magazine. The magazine logo is placed at the top left of the page. It can be seen but will be even noticeable if the contents page’s colour weren’t too much.
For section B you should compare this magazine contents page to Clash magazines contents page. Clash magazine is a bi-monthly magazine which is aimed at 18-26 year old city slickers who enjoy live alternative music from a range of genre (e.g. rock, dance, hip-hop). How does this magazine, aimed at an older more sophisticated audience compare with Kerrang or NME?!
1. How would you describe the layout of the Clash contents page? Does it remind you of anything? What does this say about the audience? How is this different to NME/Kerrang?
Clash magazine contents page layout is very simple. It only has 1 main colour scheme which is blue and white writing. It reminds me of a brochure which are very simple however informative.
This tells me that the audience will be the older people, who just want to get straight to the point of what they want to read. It is different from Kerrang/NME magazine because it is simple. It is also different because it has a few pictures.
