This contents page from MOJO has a blocky layout which features a variety of pictures on the left hand side. the pictures show a range of subjects such as album artwork and artist interviewed. The text and images are kept quite separate, each having their own side of the page. The small shadow on wonkily placed album artwork allow just a bit of movement within the layout which stops it from being boring. However small captions and tags stop the text and images from becoming completely separate. This integration of text and photo stop the reader from becoming confused on what text matches with which picture.. In my own magazine I would like to use this feature. As well as this the simplistic sans serif title 'MOJO' captures the magazines house style and makes it prominent within the readers mind. The thin black lines throughout the layout add clarity and stop it from becoming cluttered and unreadable. This divides the text in a subtle way and adds professionalism to the magazine. I particularly like this feature and will hope full use it myself, however instead of black perhaps choose a brighter colour to match my target audience. The black and white colour scheme keep the magazine sophisticated and serious however the colour among the pictures stop it form becoming boring. The list of features is also attractive as it doesn't cram too munch text in and uses sub-titles to stop it from becoming boring.
