This is a
contents page from the music magazine NME.
‘Inside this week’ – the title of the contents page is unique and different to other music magazines that I have analysed; the typical title would be ‘contents’. The title is an extremely large text which is bold with black font, to stand out against the white background. The capital letters make it seem important. I like the idea of the unique title of the page, but for my magazine I will stick to ‘contents’ and will include the name of my magazine into the title. I will make sure it is big and bold and stands out. I may make the title of my page have capital letters.
The layout and structure of this page is well organised and neat by using black lines to show what image goes with which text. It includes a lot of images that link with the stores. But each section is easy to spot out so that a reader can quickly see what they want to read. The page number also help this as they are a large bold text that stand out in a white box on top of each image to ensure this is clear for the reader. The ‘plus box’ has the other stories featured in the magazine in a list with the page numbers on top, this could confuse a reader of which story goes with which page number. For my magazine I want to include around 3-4 images that link with stories, I also want to have large page numbers in a colourful box instead of a white box. I will ensure the different stores are organised and look professional by making black lines like this page to section out the stories. I will have other stories that are featured as well and I will list them down the sides of the page, the page numbers will be clear and easy to understand as I will ensure they are put to the side of the story description.
There are a range of camera shots used for these images, including close ups, mid-shots and long shots. For my magazine I would like to vary to the camera shots so that the readers get a different view on each artist that is used for my images.
