"KERRANG" Contents Pages Analysis

"KERRANG" Contents Page Analysis


Unlike the "Q" Contents Page the Main Image (so to speak) is cover the upper half of the page displaying the band "Framing Hanley" they all hold up the Union Jack, which suggests they are proud to be British. It also shows the main three promotable articles just below the image. This again shows what other "Specials" the Magazine has to offer.

Just above that very Image "CONTENTS" is titled to illustrate the nature of the page. The colouring here Yellow on Black brings even more attention the to Images and helps mold the page.

Halfway down the page "KERRANG! THIS WEEK" shows you that below the title the page will be listing what is in this week's "KERRANG" The colour contrast along with the rest of the titles is fairly similar to this particular one, Yellow/Red thick wording with a Black background which helps contrast the colours and bring attention to the title and section.

Below the title is the normal contents layout, exposing the whereabouts of the other articles/features. This allows the reader to find them with relative ease and helps strengthen the professionalism of the Magazine.

The bottom left holds the place of the Editor's notes of which she addresses the readers and gives a "Heads-up" on whats to come in the issue. This is also a pleasant way to relate to the audience and is common practice for a Magazine's contents page to have one.
