Contents Page

First Draft

* I used the same colour scheme as my front cover.

* The main feature takes up almost half of my entire contents page, to show to the reader this is an important factor of this issue.

* The text is split into three sections: 'On the cover', 'Inside' and 'Regulars', so that it is easy for the reader to find what they are looking for.

* I kept the layout simple as this is a common convention of a contents page.

* I have used only two colours and two fonts so that it does not look cluttered or unprofessional.

* However, the text was far too large and my photograph was a bad quality.

Second Draft

Final Contents

* I changed the main photograph as this one is bolder, brighter and more eye catching.

* I used the 'desaturate' tool on photoshop to make my editors photo black and white.

* I added a drop shadow to page numbers so that they stand out and also made them a different colour. This helps to keep my layout simple and easy to read.

* I added page numbers on top of photographs so that it is easier for the reader to find what they are looking for.

* I added an outer glow to 'Brooke Davis' to make is stand out on the white background.

* I included an editor's letter as this is a common convention of a contents page.

* The red line down the middle of the page helps to seperate the two sections of text.
