DJs content page analysis


There are a number of images on this DJ music magazine contents page. The smiley faces are placed on top left hand side of the page. The colour of the faces are yellow and this helps them to stand out on the background. They attract the reader's eye to them because they are of a bright colour and this makes them seem more attractive to the human brain.

Next to these images of the top right hand side is the phrase "Living and breathing dance music", this suggests to the readers that this magazine is all about dance and music. It is in capital lettering and is in bold.


As well as the phrase, also on the right side of this page is four sections and next to each section is an image which tells the reader a bit more of what each sections is about. The first two images show a huge theme of a musical concert(fun), where as the next two images show a more serious theme. This puts a balance on what the magazine is really about.


There have been alot of colours used on this contents page. The background colour is white but also has a section that is black on the bottom left hand side. Also at the top of every section there is a straight, bold line that is a different colour. This was done by the designer to ensure that each section clearly stands out. The title "contents" is not really easy for the reader to see because it is not bold ot in capital lettering and is a very light gray on a white background. Just below the title is the four sections. The first section is called "UP FRONT". The words are in capital lettering and bold. The first word is written in grey and the second is in black. The second section is called "AAA" and the text is slightly bigger for this title. The sections are very beautifully layed out and attractive due to quiet a few things. The text wihin the sections are of two colours. The firsts sections teaxt is pink and black, the second is blue and black, the third is in brown and black and the fourth on eis purple and black. This is a unqiue style. The main pallet for this contents page is black and white because they are the two colours that are most used.

The feacture section is on the left hand side with a black background. This section isn't very colourful, it is of a simple layout. Many readers will believe that this is a clever idea. The feactures section has also got white text in it, the sub-headings are also white but they are in bold. The reader will first be drawn to this section of the page because it is so different to the rest of the page which is colourful.

The magazine is getting the information of music across to the readers. This magazine is aimed at an audience who is interested in the type of genre this magazine is and i think the age group for thier target audience is from about 15 to 30 years old but it could be for any age group because of everyone's different tastes in music.
