This contents page has a very interesting main image. It is a halloween issue so it has a man dressed up in a scary outfit. This is most probably to signify the danger and anger within this man's music.
The top half also shows smaller images of double page spreads that are withheld in the magazine. This would be like a tease so the reader will definetly want to carry on reading.

Underneath the main image is the page numbers and information on stories within the magazine
The main colours used on this contents page is also black and white, but also yellow.
The backround is white to bring attention of the main images and storys to the readers eyes and not become distracting.
The black was again used for text because it is very effective over a white backround, it stands out very well.
Finally the yellow was used only on the words "this week". I dont know why this was done but my guess would be to signify that it is always changing and the stories next week could be completely different.
Arron, come and find me during the week. I need to help you analyse the contents and double page spread of a magazine using written, technical and symbolic codes. You need to analyse how the magazine creates meaning through these codes?
