ANALYSIS OF CONTENTS PAGE 1(Title/date of magazine analysed)

The title on the content page is placed right at the top dominating the row, so that it is clear for their targeted audience to see. Its in red because its representing the color scheme as red is used thought the magazine especially on the front cover

The date is just underneath the title, which you can clearly see contrasting with a black box. This is important because the audience will be expecting an update on their favorite artist

ANALYSIS OF LAYOUT CONTENTS PAGE 1

• The layout of the contents page is very clear as you straightway know what where things are placed as its displayed very professionally and isn’t messy.

• At the top the title dominates that whole row which is important as it’s the name of the magazine and also to know that this is the content page. On the left is a list of artists that appeal to the genre and to the audience, the middle section is of an artist that discusses what she’s been up to lately and on the right side is what will be included in the magazine, what articles will be featured.

The content of what will be featured in the magazine, the font style is different to the style of the “contents” this is more girly, which could suggest its aimed for both genders and not just men The contents page shows six features of the magazine and enables the audience to know what to expect in the magazine and what page to expect it on.

This contents page features a light red back round with a large 'v' positioned directly above the main image. The letter V is designed to stand out more than the other writing as the letter V stands for vibe which is the name of the magazine
