1. Contents page analysis 3
By Nishat Aziz.

3. There is a ‘Billboard’ logo, which suggests
branding and gives the magazine an established
look.
The title is ‘Contents’ which is suitable as it tells
readers exactly what the page offers. Its style is
in block letters and is black which makes it stand
out. The title contrasts well with the background
as it is white black text.

4. The page numbers shown are only main features
that will appeal to the readers. The page
numbers in black which is bold and stands out to
readers. Also, the few images that are shown
have page numbers next to them which is
effective as it makes it easier for readers to
simply go to the page they want by looking at
the image.

5. There are a number of images; however there is
a main image of a model/artist. The artist is
crouched down and appears to be looking at the
direction of the text, indicating us to look there.
The 3 images above are also artists. The images
are appropriate as there are articles based on
these people inside.

6. The layout of the contents page is a bit crowded.
The contents are in two columns and show the
main contents of the magazine and not all. The
contents are split into four; ‘Upfront’, ‘Features’,
‘Music’, and ‘In every issue’. This is good as it
helps readers know what they’re looking for.
