NME Contents Page Analysis

This contents page uses images that have been constructed above or around page numbers that feature articles directly connected to the person or group featured in the image. The images support the rather simplistic style of the magazine itself as shown as the text is linked to the images around or above them so you know which page holds which article about the artist featured in the image.

The fonts used in the contents page vary but the colour of the font stays the same colour throughout and that colour is black. The varying font and colour on the contents page does not really support the fonts and colour on the front cover because they are both very much different from each other in both font style and colour so roughly can’t be compared to each other.

The information is organised where the article and the page number is put around or underneath the image that the article is actually about this makes this information very easy and accessible to the audience of this contents page.

There are not any different sections in particular in this contents page besides the small boxes that separate each page number and image from the other articles making it easier for a reader to single out a page number and image and analyses that particular mini section.

There are no promotional features in this contents page. There is also no sight of the magazine logo on the contents page. Furthermore there is no other brands being advertised or endorsed on this
contents page.

The techniques that this contents page uses to attract readers eye to specific articles are the use of secondary images onto of or next to the articles that these images belong to. This attracts the reader’s eyes to the article because the reader may recognise the people in the image and then notice the text underneath stating the article and the articles location so then the reader flick through the magazine in an attempt to locate the article all because of the use of secondary images which attracted their eyes.
