STATEMENT OF INTENT

Seeing that Gospel consists of the update in the gospel world with the current gossip and issues to do with artists, choirs and concerts in their contents page. Furthermore in gospel contents pages they are normally very simple which the format of features all in a list form. Also the language that is expressed is formal but simplistic due to the target audience being older.

GOSPEL CONTENTS PAGES/ MY CONTENTS PAGE

In my contents page: The codes and conventions which will be shown is the use of the themes and the topics whilst having the element of different topics that will interest my target audience because my audience is younger than the general audience aimed at Gospel magazines. Furthermore in my contents page there will be a small illustration of some of the features that will be displayed in my magazine. However: Because my target audience are young between the ages of 16-20 I must show the more important ideas that will intrigue them. So some of the pictures and the text will displayed in such a structure that will attract them enough to turn to that page. Even though the use of the contents will be shown as the headline I will construct the illustration of it in a different to make it look fun and attractive

LAYOUT

The layout of my contents page is going to use is 3 columns because the I need to layout three section for:• Pictures • Text boxes for extra information • One whole picture

However instead of making one whole picture I will use two boxes in one grid to display the picture and the features.

In the illustration of my contents page I will use the baseline grid to document the text. Which will make it easier for me to align the text correctly.

NAVIGATION AND BORDERS/RULES

To make my contents easy to navigate with the use of the columns I will use borders around my pictures and my Editors note. Using the border around the Editors note allows the audience to see the note.

In my contents page there will be three boxes each for the pictures and the text. Whilst having a features section with the number located next to it and a main image at top of the box. The layout of the boxes and texts and the illustration of the numbers allows the reader look at the contents page and not to be to bored or to distracted by how busy the adverts, the writing that have demonstrated on many music contents pages.

FOUR IMAGES

This image is a long wide shot of a girl that is happy as she dances with a tambourine. Even though the model in the picture is not at eyeline level with the audience it still shows how model is having happy and rejoicing over an event. The tambourine was used because they are normally associated in the Gospel as a basic instrument used to express excitement whilst dancing or singing.

Another wide long shot of a singer with a choir that is getting ready to sing. The picture is not of a choir is taking a picture together because reader some insight on the choir as they look relaxed when they getting ready for a concert.

Most of all the images used in my contents page allows the audience to feel intrigued and attracted to the pictures and text which follow by revealing the models in the picture demonstrating what is the relation to the text.

The wide shot which is in black and white makes the picture look more powerful as it focuses on the dancers and the moves they are making. It also presents through the use of the editing of colour looks as they have taken a still image which has been paused allowing the audience to be able capture the moment of the exclusive dance group who have won the international dance competition.

The drummer is playing which relates the instrument can play. Wide medium shot allows the audience to that the boy can actually can play the drums amongst other instruments.

COLOUR SCHEMES AND FONTS

The colour scheme is very simple as it is purple and black. The chosen colour was purple because the colour relates the front cover. The colour purple normally relative to the gospel.

The colour black with the use of some effects such as stroke will be used to increase the attraction on the text and on the page numbers. The colour black compliments the purple to make it stand out and look sophisticated and powerful Gospel contents page.
