A review of the second contents page for my music magazine 'Flow'

1. ‘Flow’ Contents Page 2
Review
By Kieran Kelso

2. Expectation
• For my second contents page, my expectation was to have
photographs of several artists and/or workers behind the scenes, like
producers and sound engineers. The page would also include a
section of regular features in each issue, taking and using conventions
of existing magazines, such as readers’ letters and charts.

3. Reality
• Looking at my second contents page, I feel
that I have created the type of page that I
talked about in my expectations very well. The
use of photographs with a caption within the
larger section of the page makes the magazine
more interesting to the average reader, rather
than just standard text. The regular features
have also been included in this design, which
include the previously mentioned conventions
of readers’ letters and charts. Along with
these features, I have also displayed the
magazine’s social media pages in the open
area. Putting the social media pages at the
beginning of the magazine encourages
readers to follow them before they read on,
as social media can be used for any extra
content.
