Contents page draft/stages

In todays lesson I watched the first tutorial in order to start making the layout to my contents page, This included placing red boxes on the page representing where my images will be placed after I have had my own photo-shoot. I moved them around on the page until I was happy with how the layout looked.

In todays lesson I placed in where the columns of text will be on the contents page. I labelled them with headings so that I can eventually place my sell lines in when finished. I also placed the title, date and issue number in position on the page. However I still need to change the fonts and colours of these. Next lesson I will start to replace the red boxes with pictures and empty columns with real sell lines.

In todays lesson I replaced the red boxes on the page with pictures from google. I chose these specific pictures because they are similar to the ones that I will take myself and use. They are all of RnB artists as my magazine specifies in this particular music genre, I also included pictures of festivals as I want to recreate this theme when I take my own pictures.

This shows when I started to add my own pictures in to my contents page and fill up the text box with contents that were relevant to my magazine. I included red boxes for features such as subscription and social media because I thought these certain features should draw in more attention.

This was the final result of my contents page for my finished magazine, I think that it looks a lot better than the previous drafts and stages as it looks more full and there are no gaps, it also includes a variety of different models rather than including the one same model that was featured in my contents page. I also included captions to every photo to inform the reader what pages these photos were linked too.
