Textual Analysis Of 'Rock Magazine" Contents page



This is a contents page from Rock Magazine. The layout is a little different from the previous contents page I analysed. Again it looks pretty basic with the images dominating the page, the way they are presented gives a more professional and vintage look they ain't scattered around as you would expect from a magazine typically aimed at teenage consumers. However contents of the images themselves are of of bands more likely to be associated with the younger audience.
The background is plain white with the only colour variations appearing in the images and the black and red text, the font again looks simple but stands out with the red writing being the main story and the smaller black writing giving the reader more information about it.
The images make up some kind of montage with them having numbers on them corresponding to page numbers within the magazine. The bands that appear in the images are well known such as My Chemical Romance and Fall Out Boy.
