Deconstruction of a Contents Page


This contents page is from Elle magazine. I chose to include this because I actually really like this contents page and would like to use it as a kind of template for when I come to do my own contents page. The first thing that really pops out at me when I look at this is the background. Its a collage made up of images what will presumably be featured inside the magazine, it gives the target audience a small insight into what this magazine is about; fashion. The background is very unique and I haven't really seen any other magazine which has a background quite like this one. The image of the model in the top left hand corner really shouts out high end fashion, with its use of quirky makeup, which is very minimalistic yet bold at the same time.
 
Considering that the background of this page is very busy the key information is very understandable and can be seen very easily. The simple white boxes includes black text and font. The fact that the titles of each page are highlighted in a red colour makes it stand out. Also the colour red connotes passion- a passion for fashion, power- powerful and independent woman will read this as magazines such as Elle and vogue and aren't necessarily cheap.
