To create a contents page to accompany the school magazine front cover that I created previously. This contents page gives an insight in to other articles within the magazine and was another way for me to get used to using photoshop before I have to create my final front cover, contents page and double page spread.
The Research
I was disappointed with the result of my contents page and I felt that if I spent more time on it I could of produced a much better and more effective result. The contents page doesn't really link to the front cover that was created and this is something that I will need to make sure happens in my actual task. Creating this has helped me see where my skills in photoshop need to improve for example the font used is not that suitable for a contents page and this is something I will take in to consideration when planning my final pages. I am also aware that I should of included the page number down the bottom as this is a key convention in magazines and one that I will be certain to stick to when creating my later contents page, I will also make sure to include a website address.
Conclusion
I think that this highlights the weakness's that I have when using photoshop and this is something I will work harder on when producing my final pages for a music magazine. I will also ensure that I use more stories and articles as three is not enough for a contents page and something that I should of considered more in the planning and creating of this preliminary task
