Textual Analysis Contents 2

The Kerrang contents is extremal effective in my eyes. It is clear that it is the contents page due to the text and background of the texts at the top of the page saying "Contents". The fact that it is yellow makes it extremely eye catching and especially as it is on a black background. The rest of the page is white making it even more effective. The caption below, a quote from Robb Flynn would be seen almost straight away and would be a huge incentive for the reader as the quote is intimate information. It also states the page number making it quick and easy.


Having clear headings splits up the content so the reader can scan the page for what they want to read rather then having to read it all. The Text is in bright yellow which also helps this. The use of pictures on this page is extremely effective as it shows the reader how many famous people are featured. It would make the reader want to find out more about their favourite groups ad artists. Also, the "albums" section, gives the reader advice and makes the reader believe that they can relate to the editors of this magazine as they have the same taste in music. This would create a more loyal audience and the reader would believe they're getting their money's worth of information and advice. The pictures are also nice to look at. 

The comment from the editor of the magazine creates a more friendly vibe as he is speaking out to his readers. More people will trust in the magazine and feel as if the editors are there to please them.
