The range of images on the contents page suggests that the magazine is trying to cover a wide range of demographics. This shows the magazine as being very diverse as they are trying to reach a large demographic across the magazine. Also the images that are on the page are linked to the writing, this is so that the audience can see what the articles are going to include, the writing also gives the reader a insight into the articles with a small introduction to them, this is only linked to the articles that have images on the contents page. This is a very good idea and I would like to add this into my own contents page, it gives my magazine a more unique edge.
The images on the page are very clearly placed on the contents page, this contrasts with the messy chaotic nature of the demographic, this is a good contradiction as the people in the images have this sort of personality demonstrated with the mise en scene especially costume and hair and makeup.This is done by using a casual costume that the demographic would also be wearing as sort of a fashion trend. The demographic looks up towards the characters within the bands to follow what they are doing; they are role models within the magazine. This is also a good idea and I would like this to be en forced into my magazine by making the page look neat and tidy which will contrast with the rest of my magazine.
All of the images are in colour and by doing with is means that the text can have a simple look instead of bright and by using the colour scheme of black and red it keeps it simple but also shows connotations of danger, like the personality of the demographic. I would like to use this sort of idea in my own magazine but I may just stick to using one colour. If I have colour images I will use a black font colour.
