Contents Second Draft

This is the second draft of my contents page, I've added the numbering to the pictures in order to make the layout clearer and easier to navigate for the reader, as I feel that a contents page should be as easy to use as possible. I changed to bottom section to be a special section for reviews and moved the website link to below the main list, as I wanted to be able to list the artists in the reviews.

Contents First Draft

This is the first draft of my contents page, I've made sure to use the same three colours as the cover to maintain the house style. I tried to find images which will correspond with the articles and features in the list and I plan to add the page numbers of those articles in small boxes in the corner of each picture. I've also used the same font as most of the cover, which I'm using as the 'go-to font' for the entire magazine.

Photo Editing



 These are the photos I have decided to use for my contents page. I wanted a group of photos which illustrated my articles, but were also different to the photos I used on the cover.

Cover Sixth Draft

Cover fifth draft

This is the fifth draft of my cover, I've changed the feature on the left hand side so that it doesn't take up as much space, as I felt it took attention away from the main feature. Whilst I many return to my cover to make final changes at a later date, I plan to move on to my contents page for the moment.

Cover fourth draft

This is the fourth draft of my cover, I've finished most of the features, however, I still feel the feature on the left hand side will require some more refinement in order to match the rest of the colour. I've tried to make sure my cover isn't too cluttered, but also conveys enough information to a prospective reader.
