contents page production journal

1. 5) Since the lastpiece, I have added under
‘This month’ the feature articles and their
pages. Once more I have used the
rectangle tool, as shown, to highlight the
page numbers,whichis also done in other
music magazines which follow the same
genre as me. ‘PLUS’ however has been
coloured in a different colour with the
paint bucket tool to a grey colour. This
shows the additional and exclusive
featuresthe audience canexpect to find if
they purchase the magazine. The house
colour scheme in the contents page also
stays simple but still meets the genre I
have aimed at producing. The grey may
connote the oldfashionedstyleof indie/folkpopwhichisn’tmainstream, andthe greenportraysthe
typical connotationof indie andfolkbeingassociatedtonature. Not mentioned before, the feature
article on‘Of MonstersAndMen’has beenloweredinsize usingthe texttool as well as giving space
in order to write the editors letter.
6) Thisis my final piece of the contents
page.As seenIhave added in using the
paint bucket tool, the colour green
which keeps the genre and colour
scheme in mind, on the right page. I
have also added the image of the main
article ‘Luke Clark’. This was done by
using the magic wand tool which
enabled me to crop him out precisely.
This therefore allowed me to get his
whole body unattached to the image it
came before in and apply to my
contents page. The image also infers
again his importance in the article, and
havinghiswhole bodyonlyemphasises
this. To the image I have also faintly
added an inner glow colour of green which portrays the genre of his music. This shows how he
revolves around this certain music genre therefore the audience being attracted and eager to find
out all about him. In conclusion I have stuck to simple tools but created a fun and exciting looking
contentspage.The colourscheme hasremainedmainlygreen,as it is the ‘Green Issue’ and the text
font has stayed the same throughout the front cover and contents page.
