Contents Page Construction
Contents in big letters surrounded by an opaque red box to help the white text stand out. Writing is left justified so attention isn't taken away from the artist.
Left justified image so there is room for two columns. However it is still big so it is the main feature.
There are two columns and the numbers get higher as you go down and across like other magazines, meaning it is easy to follow.
The numbers are in boxes so they are highlighted. There will be a main title highlighting the overall features of that section, then smaller page to page descriptions so it easy for my target market to find where they want to go.
In the top right corner there will be a semi opaque "C" which stands for the name of the magazine, Cypher. This is very popular in hip hop magazines.
There will be a black long box that is right justified with "Features" in it which allows my target market to find the features in the magazine that they want to read.
Contents Page First Draft Feedback
Things my target market think i did well:
- Contents page is very visually appealing and the text stands out against the background really well
- Nicely cropped image, i like the faded 'C' over laid on the image, good colour scheme
- I like the font for the title and the use of red and black
- Black and white photo works well
- Picture looks good and goes well
- Good house style
- I like the statement photo
- Big C is really effective, looks good
Things my target market thinks I could do better:
- Add an element on the bottom of the page for a page number
- Add images of other artists and maybe a concert
- The title could be a smaller font size to allow more room for
- Add smaller bits of page furniture
- Fill the gap in the top right with a story possibly
- Give descriptions under each story in a smaller font
- Put images in
