Contents page analysis #2


Q magazines contents page is targeted to a wide audience, it therefore must attract many people and interest them. The front cover and contents page of Q are all linked by colour schemes and sometimes images. The main article is shown in the main image. The text is aligned to the left hand side of the picture and is very linear, this allows the reader to quickly scan the information and select what they were looking for. The sub headings are bold and stand out against the white background. The layout is sophisticated and contrasts to the contents featured in NME magazine, this is because the target audience for Q is more intelligent and older, and the language used is very intelligent and stylish which again appeals to the older readers. The colour scheme used; red black and white is fresh and conveys a sense of style and passion. In one box, the words “Oasis special!” is written, this makes the reader believe that they are getting information that is special and un-known to other people.
