Mojo magazine- Contents page

Mojo magazine:
The target audience of Mojo, again people interested in music. The magazine is better suited to older adults aged 30-40. This is because the magazine isn't primarily focused on modern day, recent music therefore the audience wouldn't be younger teenagers.

Similarly to Guitar Technique the contents page is featured over 2 pages. The first page only includes one main image. The image is large and stands out amongst the text. The second page has more bold, bright images which are largely relevant to the magazine.
 

As the pictures are of new Cd's and albums that are coming out they are labelled with the CD name and artists. Towards the bottom of the page are pictures of people who have reviewed the Cd's and are giving their opinion of the CD. Some of the language is humorous and opinionated. Flattery is also used to make the album's look good and make people want to purchase them.

The number of pages in the magazine are 146 and number of articles on the contents page is 20. In contrast to the magazine Guitar Technique, that I previously analysed, you get your moneys worth as there are more articles in the magazine. The magazine costs £4.50. The magazine and price are linked as the magazine includes a free CD.

The page background is white however the text used stands out as it is red and black. The font used is clear and suggestive of the magazine as it is appropriate and the featured colours are sophisticated to suit the target audience.

From studying Mojo magazine I have been able to understand the use of graphics in the magazine and there relevance to the individual pages and overall magazine. The images play a largely important role as they act as text-breakers giving the reader a chance to break from the text and look at the images on the page.
