Finished Contents Page


Progess

I am in the process of filling out my left hand column of my contents page. I am using rulers to ensure my text is equally spaced. 






I have now finished typing up everything on my contents page so I am in the process of spell checking all of my text to make sure my contents page as no repeating of words or incorrect spelling. 

Cover story and subscription box

I wanted to add something to my contents page to make it look more professional looking and real. I therefore decided to add a 'subscribe' box which is a conventional feature on music magazine content pages. I created this subscribe box by inserting a rectangle shape on my page and then typing over the shape. I also added a screen shot of my completed front cover music magazine because this is often the layout music magazines use for their subscribe box. 



I have now completed my 'featured' column which is on the right hand side of my contents page. I now have finished the cover story part of the contents page by using large typography for the band and 'The Hand Picked' I also used a pull quote from the article. 


I have also removed the 'pg' before the page number in the right hand corner of the pictures on my contents page as it look more alternative and professional. 

completed photograph contents page grid




Here you can see I have completed my four part grid of photographs. The photographs show an insight of what is featured inside my music magazine. I have also added page numbers on the right hand corners of each photograph to inform the reader what article and page each photograph has been taken from.

I have edited and drained each of the photographs colours to compliment and reflect on my music genre of alternative. I also like the fact I have photographs with musical features in such as the records, headphones and speaker. This as a result makes the contents page look more like its from a music magazine.
