Q Magazine Contents Page

Photography: Two photographs have been used for this contents page, one being a group picture and the other one being that of a guy. The group seems to have been prioritised over the other picture as the single beings picture is smaller wither showing that he is not as important in the music industry or that his news is less important so the size of the picture seems to matter a lot.
Colours scheme: The colours are white, red black and grey white match the cover of the magazine and as some of the titles are surrounded by a red border, as red can mean fire and danger, this like other magazines of this music genre, are empowered this creates an intensity and attracts attention in itself
Writing Style:  The writing Style has been adapted so that everything represents something. Something that caught my eye in this article was that almost every number used was coloured red while text was black and titles being white. This is interesting as it seems that everything has been colour coded, even the background of the text and smaller picture at the bottom as had its colour changed so that it can clearly be seen as a different section.
Overall look: It is easy to follow the page because of the subtitles, because of the image quality, the  text is unfortunately hard to read but main titles clearly are enlarged and have been made bold, The layout is understandable as the picture is on one side and text to the other so the layout is well organised and the colours attract attention.
Text/Picture ratio: as this is a contents page, the text to picture ratio has changed to accommodate the needs of the page. The ratio seems to be in ratio of 60:40 with text being 60 and the pictures together being 40.
