Contents Page Analysis -2



The blender July 2010 there is a range of different artists featured from a range of different genres (Eminem who is rapper and Lady Gaga who is a pop artist) and industries showing that the magazine is very diverse and caters for many different genres. They use a variety of artist, genres to target a wider audience.
The contents page depicts a simple sophisticated colour scheme where it uses many neutral colours such as white, creams and pastel colours. These provide a calm atmosphere which relaxes the reader. The colour scheme also suggests the magazine is aimed at adults as younger children may prefer more vibrant colours. The use of red emphasises on particular artists.  However the magazine still uses words such as “burner” and “loaded” proving a less serious tone to the magazine.
The contents page contains information of what the magazine will enclose. It provides information on new realises, artist information, and also the cover story and featured sub stories. This is to engage the audience to buy and read the magazine, as they would get a summary about an interesting topic. It has clear page numbers next to each heading and the information is clearly organised for the reader and easily accessible, with pictures to act as a visual aid. Many magazines use a mixture of visual aids as well as typography; this is due to people getting engaged to different styles.
