Contents Page Final piece



This is my final product of my music magazine contents page, following on from the planning and research and analysing of existing magazine's contents pages.
Through my analysis of contents pages I've designed and made my magazine's own content's page with the use of the typical format, layout and features of a contents page. For example I have put a couple of contents that are in the magazine on the page and presented them all neatly in a row and with text of whats in them/ teasers of what the context will have in it. Also with the use of the contents page numbers in line with their content and the Max Newman number in white apart from the rest being purple. This is because it seperates the two and that the Max Newman content is different compared to the other ones. I've also use an original image of me portraying as Max Newman over his intended text box. I also have some small text at the bottom of the page and that displays the people who contributed to the shoot and where it was actually taken (this was taken from analysing the contents page's of Vibe magazine as I thought that it would be good for my own one).
I also added the masthead/ logo of my music magazine onto the top of the page and at the bottom (this was due to analysing of Q magazine's contents pages and also due to many magazines having their logo/ masthead on the top of their contents page's). I also added the month and year of publish and my music magazine's website, this is because I thought that it would look good on there and also that some magazines have that on their pages and so I wanted to stick with the typical features and generic conventions of a contents page of a music magazine. The tear of the top magazine I put is good because it sepreates the two and also that because my music magzine is dedicated to rock and it's genre is rock music, it is usually scruffy and torn and so I thought that I would place it there as also to stick with the conventions of a rock music magazine.
