Analysis of music magazines content pages

The content page for Q magazine is very

 simple, there is no fancy editing tricks used.

The layout of the is well put together, it is neatly

separated in boxes. It has a simple and clear title

with the issue number beside it. 

  Down the left hand side the features are laid out

very clearly, one beneath the other.The Sub-heading

for each feature is in bold letters and a clear separation

can be seen between each one. There is also a splash of

red with some of the fonts rather than black to make it 

stand out from the rest and draws the readers attention.

    The image down the right had side have been used to

give the readers a glimpse of what the article may be about

without revealing everything. Overall this content page is very

clear and supplies the reader with easy access to the content

of the magazine. It is also very organised, classy and well put

together.

This is a content page from Vibes magazine. I think it

took a very unconventional way in portraying an image

on its content page. The layout on this is very creative

and brings a whole new feel to what a content page 

should look like.

   The writing on the page is very organised as the 

text on the content page of Q magazine. The color 

of the fonts compliments the whole color scheme. 

The text is also aligned with the edge of her legs

showing how it works with the image.

  There is only one image used  on the page, she is

in an awkward position but it just adds to the 

presentation display. Seeing that there isn't many

images used it adds to the simplicity and calm feel

of the magazine. On overall this content page just

shows that a content page doesn't have to be 

crowned with images and bright color to look

good and attractive. It shows that simple can get 

the job done.

This is a pop/rock music magazine content page. The content page is

is very different to that of the one from Q magazine. There are a variety

 of images used on the page which is surrounded by the text on the page. 

The colors in the images blend in with the whole color scheme.

The title seem to be the biggest piece of writing on the on the page

and it in pink and red which stands out on the black background and

draws the readers attention to it. The font colors are coordinated to 

match in with the whole color scheme which is an important tool in 

catching the readers eyes. 

 The layout arrangement of the magazine was well put together. In

some ways it was similar to the other two magazine in that the arran-

gment of the text were very precise and not all over the place. It was 

quite a shocker for this magazine because one would expect it to be

all over the place and crazy but it's not.The execution of the whole 

presentation was very much well done.
