music magazine contents page research 1

I looked at this contents page for my first research to give myself a good idea of what i need to include and what my magazine contents page needs. The colours on this contents page have been kept to black and a shade of blue with red. The effect used is to make the light shade of blue and the red heart to emphasise the omens arm holding his heart into place. The text has been used in the colour black to not contrast with the background, therefore black text has been used. The layout for the contents page has been kept simple and easy to follow by using the picture on one side, and the text has been kept on the right hand side with the title ‘contents’ also being kept to the right hand side. The images that have been used in this contents page are of a famous rapper/singer which is well known and has a arm around his chest therefore indicates someone is holding onto his heart. The other image used is a ‘V’ which indicates the magazine name. The graphics have been used well as the picture has been edited properly and shows the picture matches everything on the page and the heart shaped has been used properly by making it match with the picture and making it stand out from the rest.
