Draft Contents Page

I decided that I was going to do a draft contents page as doing the draft front cover helped me decide what I want my final covers to look like. I also believe that this has done the same and has allowed me to pick out what I think looks good and what I think doesn't look as good.

The things that I like about this contents page-

  • I love how the colour of the page number has a colour from the photo, I think this works really well with each other and makes them stand out and look really good against the photos.
  • I also really like how I have changed the sizes of the boxes to make it seem more quirky and have more style- I think this incises the audience as because it isn't boring and makes people want to read it. 
  • The font that I have used for my word "Contents" is in the same front of my magazine cover on the word that it says "Devon" I feel like it creates a continuous theme so that the audience feels as if its all matching and all within the same magazine because if it wasn't the same font their would be a break in continuity.
 Things that I would change-

  • I had to change the font of all the writing on the left hand side and because at one point when I started doing the contents page all of the fonts were the same. I thought that it didn't look good and just looked too samey so I changed it to another font that was on the front cover. 
  • Also, if I was looking at other stuff to changed I think that the white background is very plain so I think I would change it to another colour- I would change it to a picture that is related to the front cover colours.

Initial Response To Chosen Brief.

I have selected to do my coursework this year on the brief that requires me to make a extract from a documentary which lasts 5 minutes. I have to create 2 other pieces along side my documentary and these can be; Radio Trailer for the documentary. Double-page spread from a listings magazine focused in the documentary. Newspaper Advertisement for the documentary. For my ancillary tasks I am going to do the double page spread from a listings magazine because I would like to be able to write about my project and give text because people may not fully understand the angle I am going for within my documentary. Also, I think that people would read about it and it would make them watch it. For the second ancillary task I am going to do the newspaper advertisement so I can put my photo-shop skills to use. I will create a film like poster which will need to catch peoples attention and make them want to watch the documentary- I want it to be informative about what the documentary i...

Draft double page spread

Image
After finishing this I have decided that this is the idea that I want to use, I love the theme and the images but there is a lot to change and rearrange with trying to make it look like a proper magazine double page spread. If this was going to be my final piece I know that many things would have to be change such as- The spacing within the text doesn't look profession, it looks scruffy and mismatched. I would make it all square and equal. I would do this to produce a crisp and clear line between the text and the photos.  There no page numbers which would need to be on there as it would not be a proper double page spread- This would need to be added to my final pages.  I would make sure that all of the images looked as if they go together, I may even fade them into the background.
