contents page

Contents Pages.

NME front covers stick to the traditional r b and w colour scheme this is good because on the contents you are looking for what is going to be in the magazine and the text is black on a white background and it is really good.

Having 2 or 3 photos of different things on your contents is good because it doesn’t distract you but your not bored by all of the text.

The right hand third holds most of the text and that is good but is all in one place you need it spread out across the page for it to look better.

This contents page has one massive photo in the centre third from top to bottom yet again the text is all down the right hand side but it is separated by the black highlight for the titles of each area.

Traditional colour again, most of NME content pages are the traditional color scheme. But on the left hand side there is and band index showing what bands are featuring in the magazine this week.

The main storey on this contents links in to the photo and it is a big article on an awards night so therefore NME are getting the gossip from there and using it as the main storey.

From first glance this magazine contents page you can clearly see that is a cramped page this is because they have done a massive feature article and there is too much information on the centre third and they haven’t left any room for more information.

The colour scheme has changed only because this issue is a massive article so they have kept the red , black and white but added more and there is too many colours on the page making it look really cramped.

They always have a banner on the bottom containing information about subscription this works well because it is information on a page that is giving information about what is in the magazine.

This is the new style of NME contents page with a massive title in the middle immediately catching your attention.  The structure to this contents page is much better because you can spread it about it is not in order it is all jumbled about and it keeps the reader focused and interested on what is in the magazine.

The page numbers featured in the bottom right corner of all the topics really stand out from the photos because they are highlighted in white and it looks really good.

In this the main feature is yet again in the centre but only takes up a half of the page leaving more space for more information.
