This document summarizes conventions used across magazine contents pages, noting that while genres may differ, similar design elements are followed. These include displaying the magazine title, date/issue number prominently, using a distinctive color for page numbers, and highlighting feature headlines in bold. Main articles are represented through large pictures and captions, and some magazines include brief editor's notes on the contents page to provide structure and allow readers to easily find sections of interest.

1. These three magazine contents pages are all from different magazines with different genres but follow similar
conventions. I have also followed a lot of these conventions. Firstly, the most obviously including the title of the
magazine, date or issue number on the page. having the page number in a different colour, one that stands out, to
the caption that relates to it. For example I have used a hot pink colour that continues through out my magazine
and all these magazines have used red. By having headlines, like the most common one ‘features’, with a bold
background to it, therefore it is bold and looks more prominent than the other text on the page. The main article
within the magazine, also on the front cover is also the biggest picture on the contents page and on top or below
that picture having the caption to go with it. I have included a small editors note which some magazines also include
on the contents page but many others have a separate page for a much more detailed note. Its normally quite a
structured page because it is an overview of the whole magazine, I think mine is because your eyes easily hover
over and find what you are looking for.
