vibe contets analysis

This is my third contents page and I think it is very eye catching at will catch the customer’s eye. This is only because of the picture. I also think that this contents page will attract mainly boys/men because they will like who is on the picture. This is because she appeals to them and they will think she is physically attractive.

I don't think the language on the contents is very good because it is really small and this will put the customers off reading what the magazine features this is because they wouldn’t be bothered to read all the small text. I think this magazine could be improved if the writing was bigger and also it had numbers next to what the magazine is featuring. I think this would have made the contents page a lot more appealing to the eye.

The masthead is very good as it stands out from the rest of the page because it is a contrasting colour to the background. It is also a big bold font on the top of the page so it will attract the customer’s eye. It will also attract their eye because the contents is in three different layers so people will see the ‘CO’ and will then they will want to see what the rest of the title says. This is a good clever technique because people will be attracted by the masthead because they will be intrigued.

I think that the image on the contents page is the most intriguing thing because it is a big image and the model is in a position that is unusual on contents pages, most models are stood up. This will catch the customer’s attention. Also I think that the boys will look at this page because they like the model that is on the page. I think that the designer has chosen this image because it will attract the attention of boys. Also the customer can tell that the designer is trying to get the information across that the image is the most important thing on the page this is because the image is going over the masthead, this is a techniques called layering and it is very effective. This could show the customer that this artist is different and unique from any other artist also this shows that she is breaking the mould and this might portray her music.

The contents page has a strict colour code that they stick to. The colours they use are black, white and grey, this colour scheme carries on with what the model is wearing, and she is wearing a grey jumper and silver shoes. I think that the colours are very striking because they stand out and are different from any other contents pages.

Finally, the layout of the Vibe contents page is good because the text doesn’t go over the image which makes a frame for the image and makes that stand out. However, I don’t like how the text is all squashed up in a corner because it makes the text very small and hard to read. I think it would be better if the text was bigger and spread out more.
