Contents page analysis

The masthead is nicely incorporated into the contents. Its used again in the title rather than putting it aimlessly somewhere on the page.

Red and black are the significant colours on this page. The page number is a different colour to the written words about the content itself, this is nice as it breaks each bit up.

There are only two pictures, one very big and the other featured at the bottom, these are ok as the balance of pictures and writing is evenly set out on the page. We don't feel as if we need more of one of them.

It’s split into two sections to show its features for that particular issue and then for the regular buyers it has its regular contents section. This welcomes new buyers and regulars. And it’s easy to navigate your way around the page.

It shows other magazines to show its consistency and makes it almost a challenge to get the others, promoting its future magazine as well as selling that one its self.

The layout of this page makes the contents look organised, and its put into sections and clearly marked which section is which.

There isn’t too many colours, so it doesn’t clash, but the colours used do complement each other. Meaning that they go well together. With the vibrant mixed with dull it brings out both, drawing attention to the whole page making it also look busy.

The numbers on the pictures stand out well, so you can easily see which page number that article is featured.

There are a lot of different pictures and high quality pictures on the contents. Showing how diverse and the variety of the content of the magazine. It also gives a high quality feel to the whole magazine. Making you believe you are high quality for reading it, not cheap.

The page is evidently sectioned into features and regulars, using different words, but it’s easy to see each section of what you want to read about, instead of looking through the whole thing before finding what you want. Easily navigated.

The name of the magazine is also on the contents page to keep the consistency of it.
