as you can see here we have a contents page from DJ mag. There are some definite positives of the page however Im also not so sure on the designs and colour choices but ill get to those in a sec.
The positives
ok for starters i love how all the models are dispersed round the page. The ones on the left fit neatly into each other like the brickwork of a house. The pictures are well taken and the shadow of the person bottom left works well. The pictures also show a range of artists and equipment. I would also say that the Contents (top right) works well with the dark grey line running through it.
So what wrong?
I don't like this magazine much for the same reasons i didn't like the first Q magazine i reviewed. The main culprit being the coloured text boxes with text in them. This magazine isn't too bad as the coloured text boxes alternate between non colour and colour. However we look at the colour scheme and we see someone has gone a bit mad. Theres black grey blue pale yellow and dark golden yellow all of these colours make it look like someone really has just discovered that digital colour is a thing. It makes the magazine look childish as well and spoils its look.
Overall average marks for Dj mag
