Unstrung Magazine Double page Contents

This is my final finished version of my contents page, holding all the information on what my magazine will be made up of. To follow on from my front cover and to make the two pages look similar. I used the same fonts, colours. As the overall background i wanted to use a subtle colour and I had noticed in magazines like Q they used light cream occasionally and so i copied this design as it makes the page overall look sufisticated.


To create variety in the page I made up another band "Rage City" just to add to the effect of the magazine, to make it feel and look as real as an A level design can be. I also included smaller details like page numbers and also a section containing links to social webpages online. Again this shows that the magazine covers multiplatforms, not just the printed out copy. A nd the editors comments i think make the page seem more personalised, giving and overview on this weeks issue from the head Editor of the Brand. Other small details include the Masthead in the corner of the pages, this help make the link between the cover and the contents making for an easier transaction between the pages for the reader.

The two pages follow a simple structure with the images being in the middle and the information on the outside boardering them. This information is split into sections, such as news, Tracks to listen to this week, and albums. To tye the page together i croped a image of the neck of a guitar and used it almost as a page boarder as i found that the page alone just looker empty so i pushed the information inwards and added the graphic. Although the quality is not great I just wanted to be able to represent the idea clearly and if more time was avalable i would have taken a better quality imaged and made sure the cropping was done to a higher standard.
