13. Contents Page I have attracted/addressed my audience by greeting them with a brief introduction on the aim of ‘NUMU’, content of the magazine. This is conventionally used by other music magazines. I have also used the name if the editor, in order for the audience to familiarise themselves with the people who work behind the scenes in the composition of the magazine. I have split the content into two categories by which the reader is able to identify the features and the regulars, I have also used pictures of the other artists also featured in the magazine. Each feature’s topic is followed by a short description, this adds to the interest in the magazine. I have used the theme colours of the magazine (orange and pink) to highlight the artists’ names, therefore catching the eye of the reader, this is a unique selling point that I have used to attract my audience. I have used a bold font for the page numbers, which is conventional of a music magazine, the purpose of this is for the reader to easily identify what topic is on what page.
