1. <br />323850029845The design of this contents sheet is extremely eye catching presenting additional images than text which would appeal to viewers involving the ages of 15-20. The pictures are predominantly small with one big one in the middle, each with the page number beneath.The small bit of text is on the left hand side of the page. Bigger text is on the page numbers and titles to put emphasis on these sections to the audience. There are lots of pictures and not much text as this is more in the main magazine. The magazine features mainly orange/red, black and white colours which makes it stand out at the same time as being sophisticated because there is not ridiculous amount of colours. <br />The masthead is positioned in the top right hand corner of the page and the letters drop down to spell the word ‘CONTENTS’, this style of writing evokes a sense of creativity as it is displayed over three lines. The layout of the information is rather straight forward. The font size is kept quite small to help the image stand out more, as otherwise, people may not have even seen the bare legged woman in the middle of the page.I think that the magazine here is “Vibe” because it has a hollowed out “V” in the background of the page, which of course, is the letter which is at the start of the word “Vibe”, and in addition her legs are at the top made into the shape of a V, which I doubt is just coincidence too. This was probably done, just in case the reader decided to skip the front page, and didn’t know what magazine it was that they were looking at.The overall style of this page is an attempt at a very elegant and simple one, there is no range in variety of colours as it is meant to seem more ‘sexy’ than snazzy. Also, the use of having great big high heels, when the woman isn’t even standing on them shows that they were attempting to add to the theme of elegance, even if in reality, they weren’t being used.There is only one problem with this image – the woman has clearly forgotten to put her trousers on. 3319780200660<br />3429000238760<br />This contents page seems to have a lot going on as there is a lot of pictures and there is also a lot of text at the same time. The layout and light use of colours suggests that maybe the magazine is aimed at young teenagers all the way up to adults as it seems to be predominantly about rock/alternative music, but not too heavy, more retro. It shows to male musicians, and due to part of it being about Oasis, it is assumed that at least of the two is a member of that band. There is not much text, only what is needed, which is pulling the audience in and wanting them to want to know more about Oasis. Along the side of the page there are little sub headings which attract the reader as they just give slight glimpses as to what is inside, they work in similar ways to things like demo’s, the hope is that the reader feels that they don’t know enough and therefore want to know more. <br />The layout of this contents page is again simple, but in a stylish way, rather than tedious. The magazine uses the star James Blunt to fill the page on the right and on the left there is more text than pictures. This mixture is probably good because it satisfies the people who prefer to look at pictures, and the people who like to read. And due to him being a big star the audience immediately draws their eye to him. The background is a cream colour, keeping the colouring simplistic and the clever effect of the ‘narrow depth of field’ shot, keeps the stars face perfectly in focus whilst slightly blurring the background.34290001541780sxz<br />At the bottom of this magazine there is a small advertisement demonstrating a discount, this could persuade more people to buy the magazine. The general layout is similar to most in that there is a picture smack in the middle of the band they talk about beneath – Kasabian. Additionally the inside news of the magazine is on the right hand side in column form.Furthermore on the left hand side there is a “Band Index” which, presumably shows which pages you will find information or mentions of bands, so you can find the exact band you want to hear about within seconds3396615-245745<br />3604260300990<br />The layout of this magazine is more adventurous than the average one, there is more bold writing and more pictures.Moreover, the information on what’s inside is sectioned off and placed across the page covering the whole thing. This could be because they wanted a slightly more exciting look, as opposed to stylish. The colour coding is yellow and black, which are both colours than stand out quite a lot, especially when used in contrast. <br /> This magazine contents page is laid out in a slightly different style to many in that the main picture is on the top, as opposed to in the background covering the page or slightly to the left/right. The band’s name is highlighted in the middle – “Bring Me The Horizon” which is a very heavy metal band and therefore sets the target audience to be people who like that kind of music. There is also some colour coding, yellow, it distinguishes between different sections of the magazine, making it easier to look around it. 3533140295275<br />This magazine cover has two main pictures on the front of it demonstrating what genre and audience it is aimed at. Additionally, there is a little side picture of the main stage at Leeds Festival, and as Leeds is a rock festival it shows that the magazine is maybe aimed at older/teenage audiences. Similarly to other magazines the listings of what is inside is along the side and separated into different captions so it is easier to navigate around the magazine.The general colour coding is yellow and grey, this may be because it looks stylish yet simple. 34347153556000This magazine contents page has a large picture of a star on the front of it, attracting all of his fans to buy the magazine. It has a similar style to most magazines in that, the topics for what’s inside are listed to one side with page numbers, so there is more room for big bold pictures to attract the audience’s eye. Some of the inside articles are displayed through pictures and little caption next to them, giving the reader a glimpse of what is in the magazine, tempting into buying it. There is no distinctive theme in colour, other than the highlighting of the important parts, in yellow. The pictures of the artists and performances are in colour, to add interest.In the top right of the magazine, is the word “Metallica” which defines the magazine as a heavy metal based magazine, letting the audience know who it is aimed at. 3378835-160020<br />
