Analysis of Contents page #Q




I analysed Q content page and explored how they used layout and composition, image and text.

Within the layout and composition of text, Q decided to place it on the left hand side and it’s written within a column which can make it easier to read. The main pages to view have been put in a bolder font so it stands out for the reader and it gives a brief statement of what the topic is about, this is good because the reader will have an insight into what they’re reading. The main stories are written in upper case lettering to imply that they’re important for the audience to read, the typography used is very curvy which could be used for the type of genre the edition is putting on display i.e. Pop, this creates more of an appealing effect for the audience because it looks better then having sharp typography.

Q has stuck with the same continuity of colour which is red, this colour is very vibrant and would appeal to an audience and also it could be Q signature colour. Using a white background for this page is very simplistic, but also good because then everything else on the page stands and speaks for it self rather than having too many colours which could be a distraction.
By using visual contents this allows the reader to find what they’re looking for rather than finding the pages, also by having features within their contents means they have a mix and blend of different genres which can interest a wider audience because they’re not only sticking to one they’re thinking of versatility to engage more people.

The main image stands out because there isn’t much going on to it, but the use of black and white makes the page look more seductive and appealing. With what she’s wearing makes her  look more edgy because she’s in tight fitted clothing which can attract more of a male crowd plus females might like what she is wearing.
