Analysis Vibe contents

The first thing you see in the route of the eye is the subtitle ‘Features. I feel they have out this first the on the route of the eye is because they feel it is important to have the list of features first. The next thing you see in the route of the eye is the title contents. This is the most important piece of text on this page because it is the title of the whole page and the readers may get confuse if there is not a title on the age. This word is the boldest on the page this is because they want this to be the thing that stands out the most on the page. I feel it is white because against the colour red it stands out and makes it stand out. The word contents is in a different way from other magazines this is to make it stand out and stands out from other competition in the market. Also it will make people want to read the magazine because it is different and unique. The next thing you see in the route of the eye in the primary optical area a famous rapper Plies. I feel they have put him on the contents as he is a big rapper and most people know him. Also having him on the contents means that he is going to be in a main article and people will want to read about him. The next thing you see in the route of the eye in the terminal area is his tattoos and chains, this shows he is ‘gangster’ and people will want to be like him. All four hotspots are aiming on the Plies face this is so the readers are focused on his face. The colour scheme used is white and red, I feel the background is because it is trying to represent danger and Plies looks dangerous on this page and he will want people to be scared of him. I feel they have chose white because white looks bold and stands out and it also makes it look more attractive. I feel they layout works very well as contents is not first but it still stands out the most on the page and it makes the contents page look different. I feel they should described more about what features inside as I do not feel there is a lot there so some of the readers feel there might not be interesting things in the magazine. Another unique thing about this page is that is had a fashion list. I feel this will attract more people as people care about fashion and the way they look as they want to be wearing the latest fashion of were their icons are wearing. I also feel the text in both feature and fashion lists could be bigger as it does not stand out much as they are really small so to make it easier to read I feel they should have made it bigger. I feel this target market group is 16-20 because I feel Plies is trying to attracter and older age as his songs have swearing in them and are about violence so I do not think children will listen to them. Also this is the age that are most obsessed with the way they look and want to keep up to date with the fashion. The genre of this magazine is R&B this is because rap is R&B. The gender for this is both male and females as females are more into the fashion and the males are more into the rapping.
