Music Magazine Contents Page Conventions




At the very top of my contents page I will have a title that stays ‘Contents’ And just above it I will have the masthead of my magazine I smaller font, and to the sides of my masthead I will have two thin lines beside the masthead to give it a more stand out effect and will draw attention to people who look at the contest page. The word ‘Contents’ will be in a thin white font at the top of the page and the masthead will be the same as it is on the front cover of the magazine but smaller.

On the left-hand side of the page there will be a column of text that will have different sections to it that will show what information is on what page. There will be the Page number in larger font in white and just under the page number there will be information describing what is going on in that page which will be in smaller font which is also in bold white colours as well. Just under the page numbers there will be an article title for each page which will be in the same font size as It will stand out and let the readers know.

On the right-hand side of the page, there will be image of parts of the magazine, for example there might be an image that was taken from page 3, so there will be a caption under the image stating to look at page 3 for more information.

At the bottom of the page there will be all the different social media information, about how to find motion on all the different social media sites.

Analysis of work: 

I think this piece of work has definitely gave me a more clear idea of what to do for my contents page as I've basically created a plan of what to do so i now have steps to creating my contents page that i can follow which will overall make it easier for me when creating it.

Music magazine mock up

Analysis of work:

This is a mock up front cover for my music magazine, i think that i need to change the picture to a different model as i don't think my model looks like a music star at the moment. I also need to change the sizes of different words as more important names in the cover lines need to be larger and bolder which will make them names stand out more and give them a more important look to them which is good as if the names are more eye-catching people will see them names and if they are fans will want to buy the magazine to read about the music artist.
