Q Contents Analysis 2



Blog 13
Hello Everyone,
              Today I am going to be analysing another Q contents page, this one is different to the last as its layout is completely different. Unlike the last one this issue’s title doesn’t say contents it says “issue 296” this is affective because it shows how successful the magazine is as when this issue came out in March 2011 there was nearly 300 issues. This contents page is affective because the images don’t have a blurb; this encourages the reader to purchase the magazine to find out what has been written about the artists in the image. The list of “regulars” is good because it informs the reader about what else is going to be within this issue. The large bold white numbers make it clear to see the page numbers attracting the reader to turn to them pages and read the articles inside.
The conventions I would consider using would be the large images on the left hand side, but I would probably change the layout but I like the idea of not having a blurb for every picture it’s different and quirky and keeps the reader guessing. The conventions I wouldn’t want to use would to have the issue number as my title because I’m only making one magazine so I’d either have to pretend there was a lot of issues or call it “issue 1”
