Contents Page Analaysis 2

Language: Again, as with other contents pages, the language would be used to try and make all the articles and stories in the magazine look interesting and compelling. Most of the language used would be stuff that is aggressive and threatening as it is a rock and metal magazine and is just going with the trend.

Institution: Once again, the band is a commercial magazine as it is clearly in it to make money. We get this idea as they have an advertisement to try and get people to subscribe the their magazine. Also there are advertisements in the magazine which also tells us that it is a commercial magazine.

Ideology: Once again, the main ideology of the magazine is to promote the metal, rock and punk genre of music. The magazine is does things like advertise albums, reviews albums, reviews bands and gives gig guides.

Audience: The audience, the same with the other contents page i wrote about, would be people who are interested in what the magazine would have to offer. Take for example Live Reviews , Gigs, Album reviews and other advertisements that are through out the magazine. Again, aged 14-25.

Representation: Again, the images in the contents page will all have been modeled to look aggressive and advertising to the people who are reading it. The main story in the magazine has a bigger picture and block that any of the other stories to make the audience notice it first and to make it look more interesting. The main image in the magazine is a picture of the lead singer of the band. He would have been modeled to have his shirt off so that we can see his tattoos as that is a common interest around people who listen to their music. He would also have been told to make the hang gesture to make himself look big and assertive.
