2. 1st Copy..
This was the first copy of my Contents
page. I used this specific colour’s as the
background as these were the colour’s I
used for my front cover, therefore the
housestyle would carry on through,
enabling the magazine to flow through
connecting all of the pictures together.
On this page I also had enough room to
use the logo I created, however, due to the
size of my masthead on the front cover
there wasn’t enough room to fit in the logo.
This meant I couldn’t use the logo on only
one page.
I definitely needed to sort out my picture,
due to the crop tool not working properly,
and I wanted to change the picture in
which I use as I thought it was too big and
stood too much out of the page, when the
information was the most important thing.
As well as it not following the normal forms
and conventions of a professional
magazine.
I also want to adjust the numbers by
making them slanted giving the page a
more lifted feel, rather than the dull look it
3. 2nd Copy…
This is another copy of my contents page for my hip
hop magazine 'Unstoppable'. I believe that the house
style follows through from my front cover to this page,
as well as the fonts being the same. Due to this I think
that my magazine stands out. As well as the colours
being bright and bold.
I am most happy with the little pictures in-between the
contents lines. I like them because they stand out and it
breaks everything up a little so it isn't just plain and
boring.
I want my target audience to get the feeling of hip hop
through the use of colours and font as well as pictures.
Hopefully I am achieving this so far.
I wasn't too happy with this contents page because the
picture of Connor was too dominating and too much in
the full front of the page. As well as this, he is also
featured on the front cover, and he will also be featured
in the double page spread. Due to this, I think that if he
isn’t on the front cover then the magazine wont seem to
be just about him.
4. 3rd Copy…
• This was my final version of my contents page
for my Hip Hop media magazine. I did change
my contents page several times due to me not
being happy with the way it looked. I am
happy with the different pictures, making it
more interesting, as well as the colours and
type of font. I am undecided as to weather I
am going to keep the orange background. I
have followed it through to my double page
spread, but I think that the house style will still
be carried through out the magazine if I use
white as the background. This may enable
everything to stand out a little more and to
brighten it up a little bit.
• My other initial idea of how to change this
page is the numbers. I'm not overly happy
with them at the moment as the all seem a
little different, so once I have completed my
double page spread I am going to make
changes to my contents page in able to make
it look more appealing.
