This is the start and basics to my media cover contents page getting the basics of what each page contains using a headline and a short snappy sentence an image the title ' Contents March 2013' and ID which is short for the magazine IDENTITY. There is a picture on there of Mel Lowe as she is the cover to the magazine and is the 'Headline' story. I contuined to use red as it's on the cover and also it is a bold eye catching colour.
After looking at some NME contents pages from different issues i have noticed many subscription adevertisments all in a black box with yellow and white text so i have adapted this into my own magazine also on the contents page using the same theme.
I changed the font of the subheadings to Tuer's Cardboard because it's a clear but more harsh unusual font then a times new roman whch is more formal. The target audience isn't older people because it's a music magazine for the younger generation so it can be done. I have highlighted the page titles with a black background as this was done in NME and i thought it was eye catching and made the magazine look more interesting rather than just lots of text on a white background with a picture on it, so it makes it moreunteresting for readers adding a bit of colour.
I have changed the picture which is on a slant as originally both pictures were took in the same location and as they was both blonde many people told me they look like the similar girl when they are both different. Also i've chosen pictures where both facial expressions of both girls are completley contrasted, one being happy and one being more serious, This gives to different moods to the magazine givin the reader a bigger sense of drama rather than a depressing mood magazine and i have also started to fill the gap at the top with a short letter to the reader testing different fonts.
