Contents analysis Three



·         This contents page has a slightly different layout to the other ones I have looked at so far. It has more pictures that are all over the two pages and a much cleaner appearance. It has some clear columns of different articles like ‘gear reviews’ and ‘special features’. This particular section should interest people as you want to know exactly what is so special about it. The formation of the page is very simple and easy to navigate which is good.

·         Mainly the left page is pictures which have been anchored with page numbers further in the magazine so if any one picture particularly interests you, especially if they are your favourite singer or band you can find them easily.

·         Each section under the headings is broken up into sub categories which have the basics about the article in the small title and then a little more explanation but not too much, just enough for you to want to read on.

·         The use of different font colours creates a more aesthetically pleasing look and separates the different sections quite clearly. They have also included the competition that was shown on the front cover so you know exactly where in the magazine it is and it will encourage more people to read into it to find it.

·         I like the layout because it’s very simple and visual so not too much writing and the different categories are a good way of breaking down what the magazine is all about. The largest image is showing the people who are on the front cover again at roughly half the size of the left page so symbolise its importance.
