Contents page analysis

Duffy, the main cover star of the issue, is also dominating here as the main image. Her playful persona suggest the lighthearted nature of the magazine whilst her pose gives the idea she is tackling an issue and fighting on.

There are other features on the magazine cover, with the page numbers being prominent to allow readers to find any features they are looking for specifically.

The contents page for Q magazine follows the bold and simplistic style seen on the front cover. The main stories within the magazine are listed as the 'features' with some of the more important incorporating images. The lack of colour creates a sophisticated look and also provides emphasis on the small amount of colour that is there.

Band name research

I decided to research some band name ideas, that i felt would be relevant to the genre and style I plan to make my magazine. From my previous research, I decided I would like to create a band that included a main singer with an iconic style who were supported by a band. Therefore, from the band name research i've carried out so far I like the idea of having a name with 'and the' in. However, memorable and meaningful band names have also been attractive to me, so I have written down a list of the ones I like most so far.
