Construction of my Second Draft - Contents Page


First I created a blank A4 canvas, then began to add in all the elements I wanted so my cover would correlate with my contents page creating a house style for my magazine. I again chose to stick with the main colour scheme of red, white, black and grey. I then added in my heart rate icons and the title Contents in the typeface of "rezland' this again is used in my front cover giving my magazine a smooth flow and sense of professionalism. I added my slogan to the top left of my Contents title - for this I used a different LCD font which also correlated as the same on my cover.  I then took my images of my models and placed them either side of each other; however I enlarge one as she is the feature of my front cover therefore I want her story to be the focal point of my contents page. I then began to add text using the text tool on Photoshop - I used the font Helivicta for the titles in a deep red colour and the anchoring text in the font of ST Song in black.


I then began to add in the rest of my cover lines and their blurbs. I used both fonts of Helivicta and ST Song throughout and also added in black boxes with white numbers to highlight the pages which the stories related to. I did this to make the reading of the magazine easier on the eye. I continued the process of adding in text until the page was complete.
