College Magazine Contents Page (and Personal Comments)


This is my Preliminary Draft of a contents page for a school magazine entitled ‘6formed’.
The pros of this contents page is that I added the necessities of any contents page; the title ‘contents page’, the magazine name ‘6formed’, easy navigation and the page numbers. The background used is the same as shown on the front cover and the same colour scheme has been used. The image from the front cover accompanies the main sell line and page number. However, I still feel that it looks amateurish.
The cons of this contents page is that it is too simple, there are not enough images to accompany the sell lines and page numbers, it isn’t very well organised and the scattering of the line ‘includes pictures..!!’ seems rather pointless. In future tasks I will take more time and put more effort into the magazine so that it resembles a professional top-selling magazine. To improve on future contents pages, I will add more images, make the text stand out more and work on the layout better by looking at professional magazines and taking some tips and ideas from them.
