Preliminary Task: Contents Page Evaluation
Above is my contents page and editing and layout wise I'm very happy with it, however there are places that I feel a few improvements could be made to make my contents page even better. Originally we were supposed to do a contents page not a contents page that was spread over two pages however looking at Magazines the majority had a contents page that was spread over two pages.
Improvements that could be made:
1. Layout
Majority of the layout I am happy with, but I do feel like it could be better. All the images that are used are relevant to the stories that are on the pages but some of them are not near the story they are related to. Also the main image in the background of the lad (Henry) smiling is difficult to see that that is related to the ;Study or Chill' title as he has a pen in his had but that is in the bottom left corner. Also putting everything on one page would make it look much more full, as you can see there is a bit of white space that is left over on both pages what could easily be filled up using the content from the other pages.
2. Page Numbers
Its not the titles of the stories themselves however its the part at the end of each that tells you what page it is on, looking at other magazines the number for the page for the reader to turn to should be next to the text in a different colour and bigger than the rest of the text so it is clear to see what page specific stories are on.
3. Text
Although it is easier to see which is the head title and the text for each title just to make it more pleasing to the eye I could make the text bold and underline it to make it look more professional maybe.
