Q Magazine Contents Page Analysis

This contents page is taken from Q magazine. At first look, I think the layout is nice. I like that the features are on the left hand side and the main picture is on the right hand side coving up most of the page.

I like the small picture at the bottom of the page is the Q review section and the small writing to the right of it. I like the way that it looks and I will incorporate it into my magazine. 

I think the contents page looks dull and boring on the other hand because the colours used are the most common colours used in a magazine (red, white, black). The Colours do stand out and the readers eyes do move over to the section with the most colour, but because it is used a lot, it gets boring and it isnt original. I also think the pictures are boring and nothing is happening in them which doesn’t appeal to their audience.

Overall, I like the contents page but wont incorporate much into my final contents page. I might incorporate the title of the contents with the issue number and the date next to it because I think it looks nice.
