Final Contents Page

This is my final contents page. 

The subject content is divided up into both monthly features that would be there weekly and possibly follow on into the next issue. Implying a successful, monthly magazine and also encourages the resale as people will want to see the 'new bands' for next month, too. The 'features' section is parts of the magazine that are exclusive to this month, giving the issue a special quality to it.
I have maintained the colour scheme of black, white and orange. This makes it look conventional. Q magazine, my style model, also uses maintains it's colour scheme.
In terms of the 4 f's, the Frame of this was influenced by the Q magazine as I felt that it looked professional all being aligned.
The male and female gaze of the image on this page is important. The model looks straight into the camera, which directly engages with the audience, perhaps encouraging sales.
Although the indie genre doesn't particularly rely on good looking people on the cover to sell magazines like an R'n'B magazine would, I still think that a good looking well dressed model was necessary to reflect the genre positively.
