research for contents page


Research for my contents page;





My theme is rock so i started to look at existing rock magazine contents pages. i decided to focus on these one specifically. what drew me to these pages were there layouts and colour scheme. i liked how some of them are so simple but the layout and colours make them stand out. i also like how some of them are quite busy which also makes the look really bold and stand out. 

although some of them are quite different in terms of layout they all do shares similarities. 

all of them do have quite big writing (big enough to read). the text used is also quite blocky and easy to read. the colours used on the text is spread out to highlight key areas of the page. 

the images used on them relate really well to the them (rock). they all are generally quite busy or quite desecrated to make them look quite grundy to add to the theme. the images are also place in a way to lure the reader in to read the magazine.

in all of the pages the text used underneath the featured areas is very brief. this is so that the reader will want to read more.

Generally the colours used on these pages are quite bright to make certain areas stand out. the colours also somewhat contrast each other so that certain parts stand out over others. 

the layout in all of the pages are quite spread out and spacious. this allows it to be seen better it also make the page look a lot neater
