Content Page Linking To Magazine Cover Research

The masthead is the most outstanding feature of this magazine. I feel this because the colour of the white is bright and bold against the blue background.
The main story on the cover is "PILLS! DEATH THREATS! DEEP SOUL". This is eye catching as its all in bold text, also there is not much more text on the cover so it stands out. I think that the headline   "ELVIS" is written in a gold, san serif font because Elvis is seen as a star and this is shown by the gold stars used next to his picture. The use of gold gives me the impression of fame which is used appropriately for Elvis.    

The contents page of this magazine breaks conventions, this is because the contents page starts on the back of the frontcover, which is not conventional.
The masthead of the frontcover is carried through onto the first page of the contents page. There is a picture of the artist on the cover on the contents page, but its from a different era of the artist. The second page of the contents page is filled of photographs of musicans and bands. These images link to the number in the list on the first contents page. There is 17 items on the list and there is 10 images. The first page of the contents page generally follows conventions apart from being on the back of the frontcover. The key words on the contents list are in bold so they standout more against the white background.






Things i like about this magazine cover and contents page is the collage on the second page of the contents. I think this looks creative and interesting and something i would consider using for my magazine.
