specific contents page research

After researching the previous contents pages I decided to look more specifically into my genre and the contents page that I would like to use. Looking at these three contents pages I have decided to create my contents page just like these. I will create the word contents so that it goes across three lines on the top left hand or right hand corner as I feel it stands out more than an average 'contents' I also think that it is very unique and so far has only been used by vibe magazine which these three contents have all come from. As they are from Vibe magazine I know that they will attract my audience and social group as Vibe magazine is the leading magazine of that genre. I also like how the features are layed out along the side. I think that the first contents page uses this really well, having a thin column with headings that separates what is in the magazine making it easy to understand what is where and easier to find what you are looking for. I also like that they have all used one large picture on the whole contents, this gives it a solid look and makes it stand out. The person used on each of these looks intriguing and interesting to read about which will attract the audience.
