contents page analysis

As we can see by just looking at this contents page we can tell that the target audience is for teenagers because of the colours; the layout and the images that have been used. For example the colours that have been used are yellow, orange, pink, black and blue. These are a range of colours that don’t really go together and clash. The contents page looks really busy however; there isn’t much writing on it. I feel that the order in which the number of the pages have been shown on the contents page are quite hard to understand and mixed up. The language that has been used on this contents page is defiantly informal one because of the target audience being teenagers and two because like ‘crazy in love’ and the ‘o’ being a love heart is something that children would do and ‘date Olly’ is make believe it’s not really going to happen but it works well as that is the sort of content that teenagers want to see. The page itself has been divided into two horizontally with the top half just an image which is of the front cover and the bottom half which is split into two columns, with information telling you what is on each page. Although there is a strip that runs down the whole of the page and it is located on the right hand side of the page with images of celebrities with a title; ‘hot posters’ which will make girls want them and to turn to them pages. Overall, the contents page looks busy and colourful which appeals and suits its target audience well.
