This contents page is from the 'Rollingstones' magazine from August 27th. The contents page only spreads over one page rather than two. The heading 'RS1242' is in the masthead, it is in capital letters which makes it is really noticeable therefore it's easier to catch the audiences attention. There is a 3 colour scheme which is black, white and red. There are 3 images, one bigger than the others which can imply that it is more important and that the audience need to read about it or that it is more spoken about which is David Gilmour's new album and his new tour. They're all a medium-close-up. The images that are shown are part of the top stories and therefore have a number on the bottom right to indicate the page number that they are shown on, this helps the reader find these stories easier and faster. The contents page has been split into 3 different sections, these sections are sub-headed as; 'Features', 'Rock & Roll' and 'Departments'. These sub-headers are there to help the readers navigate themselves within the magazine, this therefore takes them straight to what interests them.
You have a cover and contents for Rolling Stone - more useful to use from the same issue but maybe find the DPS to link to one and this will be fine. Some good detail to cover analysis, especially image, what about cover lines, text and fonts? More detail to text and content of content page - look into the target audience and genre, find the media kit and analyse this to help.
