Analysis of Second contents page

For my analysis of a second contents page i have chosen to do this one which is one of three out of the music magazine Vibe. The masthead of this content page will stand out to the reader as it in in white capital letters against a black background, it then contrasts well together. It also almost uses enjabment however it doesn't have a meaning as the word 'contents' is not usually broken up into 3 syllables. This then gives off a sense of confusion, which then coincides with that fact that the reader could also be confused on why Ciara is laying upside down.
To help the audience know that Ciara is going to be the main feature of the magazine it is important that she fits in well with the colour therefore what she is wearing and the colour of it contrasts well with the colour of the background. This also represents her sexual, seductive image as one of the main first things that will catch the readers eye is her bare flesh.
The position in which she is laying with her legs in the air also adds to her sexual image and the way she is staring at the reader is also quite seductive. This image will attract both men and women as Ciara is someone that women will admire and she will attract men because of her good looks and the way in which she is laying.
Where her clothes blend in with the background so does the colour of her jewellery, this then makes her flesh stand out more and this will attract the customers eye. Although Ciara is the main image her legs have been made to be more obvious than the rest of her as they have been highlighted.
At the top of the page the letter "v" has been put into the contents page, this represents "Vibe" and as it is white, it contrasts with the background, Ciara's feet then fit in the shape of the letter helping it to be noticed more.
