Creating my contents page

Masthead/date and main image

Firstly I added a masthead with the date and the main image to my contents page. The masthead links with the masthead on the front cover as the same font/colour theme is used. I placed this at the top as this is a convention of a magazine and titles the whole page so the audience know what this page is all about. The image I used isn’t very big as a lot more information needs to be added to this page.

Contents and smaller image

Next I added the contents down the side with headings that stand out (black background, white writing), so that the audience can easily find a certain page. I also added a smaller image of a different artist so that the magazine has a variety of indie artists featured.

Subscription box

Then I added the subscription box to the bottom of the page, I put this in a yellow font with a black background so it stands out from the rest so that people can get more of this magazine by subscribing.

Editorial

Next I added the editorial in the centre of my contents page so it is a main point about this page as it introduces you to the magazine and lets you know what this new magazine is all about.

Final adjustments

Lastly I made my final adjustments by changing the small image at the bottom of the page as I needed to add more of a variety of artists so it would appeal to the audience more. I also added a picture of the magazine front cover to the subscription box so that it looks more realistic.
