contents page research 2

The second contents paged I looked at was from ‘The Griffin’. the colours used on this contents page are similar to school’s theme, the colours used are purple and black for the text. The purple used it to keep the consistency with the school’s colour theme. The black colour is used in or the text, to stop colours contrasting but also to make text visible and clear for the audience. The use of a white background allows everything on the page to be seen clearly and make it stand out. The use of images have been used very efficiently and stand out from the page. The image tends to represent a certain area within the magazine, which allows people to be easily navigated. The image at the bottom is the same picture used on the front, which shows repetition and shows the importance of the story behind the picture. The layout of the contents page has been kept consistent and easy to follow with the information on what on each page which is indicated on the left hand side, also the ‘top story of the month’ is indicated along the bottom of the contents page to stand out from the above information, this is indicated at the bottom to show that the importance of the topic. The graphics used are simple and plain, such as the two pictures which have been fitted and edited to fit onto the page while everything around it has been placed around, or onto of the picture.
