drafting and planning, school contents page

This is a basic draft for a contents page for the preliminary task.

 

I started off with the masthead that was included in my draft for the front cover and used it again here in the same position because this is a typical convention for most magazines.

 

I then added in some text next to it on the right hand side which labels this page as the contents page. I used a basic font called 'quicksand' which is a professional well rounded font which therefore suits the formal style of the school and it clearly communicates to the readers what this page is.

 

 I also made the text black because its part of the house colors for the school and it is contrast to the masthead which is red, making it stand out to the reader who will immediately see recognize this as the contents page.

 

I then added in sub headings which take the reader to exactly what they want to see and lists of features found in the magazine telling the viewers where to go to read about them with the use of numbering

 

Finally I put in 3 images, one being of me, which is the same one as on the front cover, another typical convention of contents pages and two other images that relate to other features in the magazine
