Research: contents 5

 I have chosen to write about this Kerrang magazine contents page as I like how it is laid out and that it relates to my genre.

For this contents page it is a 1 page spread with a lot of detail and information crammed into it. This contents page has all of the articles in the right 1/3rd of the page this is a long narrow strip with very small writing but the house style incorporated.

I think this would be very difficult to read and is not suitable. I do like however the large image which takes up a 3/3rds of the pages this also includes text about the competition and lots of details of how to get involved.

I also like how in the bottom corner is a section on ask the writer. This is interesting as you rarely see this on a contents page but I may use this in my own magazine.

Although I do not like how the contents page is so cluttered this is making me want to create a 2 page spread so I will have enough room to fit all the information I need to make my magazine busy but yet readable.
