The fonts that are used on the contents page aren’t usually as large as the fonts used on the front cover of magazines. The fonts are san serif fonts which relates to the indie genre of the magazine. The reason the magazine can be identified as an indie genre magazine is because the band ‘Courteeners’ are the main image on the contents. The san serifs fonts give this suggest that the music incorporated in the magazine is fairly recent and modern. In contrast old school rock genre magazines would probably use more serif fonts.
The layout on the contents page is fairly aligned and organised on the left hand side making it easier for the reader to identify what pages each article is on. It doesn’t really follow the route of the eye concept but that is more relevant to the front cover rather than the contents page. There is far more text than image on the contents page, this is mainly due to the reason that each article is specified.
The colours that have been used make the magazine look fairly smart and sophisticated as the indie genre is like a formal genre of rock. The black and whites are there to make the brighter colour, red, stand out more. An example of this is when the numbers on the left hand side before the article are coloured red. This makes the page numbers stand out as this is what the reader is looking for.
The Mise-en-Scene used in the image such as setting portrays the genre very well. The Dull countryside used in the image above suggests that the magazine could be related to the indie genre/folk music. The band members are also wearing indie style costumes within the image. The lead singer is wearing sunglasses, this might be a iconic message to the readers, or could be portraying his authority as the leader of the band.
The camera work of the image used the image is composed so its a long shot. This shows the full body of a person(s) so that the reader can look at the full clothing line they are wearing. It is also a very good image of the band as the lead singer is standing just in front of the other members to show his authority as leader of the band.
