My Preliminary Task - CONTENTS PAGE



This is my preliminary contents page which I was pleased with, however I know many ways in which I could improve it. Obviously, without photos the page looks empty and if i were to properly complete it, the colour from the other pictures would hopefully improve the aesthetics of the page.

The thing that I did do well on was the use of house colours. The dark red of the title and headline link to the front cover and add cohesion. Also, I used the same star shaped call out to make a link in the readers mind and persuade them to read the details which follow on from the front cover. Under the star, I used underlined text to make the writing stand out. I have seen this done in other magazines and I thought the effect was a more professional on.

However, if I were to do this contents page again I would look at adding a block of one or two colours behind all the writing, to stop the page from looking so unfinished.

I think the main problem is that this piece was only preliminary and therefore didn't need to have a complete look to it. So, without all the text and photos I can't make a complete evaluation of the page.
