Now I have finished my magazine, I have to produce a draft layout of my contents page. For this I am going to analyse the two college magazines I used before for my research to see if they kept there layouts and design to a similar content. This will then help me to design a layout for my contents page and see which key features I should keep the same.
Here I have included a link for the magazine which I am reviewing: http://www.eastridingcollege.ac.uk/retrieve/d2343bc1358b3983a89d916f6a988935
From looking at this college magazine produced for the East Riding college I can see that they have kept a similar format and consistency to there magazine. The producer of the magazine has decided to use again black and white, which is the same as they used on there front page. This again shows a sophisticated look on the magazine. They also used a constant house style with their font as well showing again a consistent look throughout. I believe the person who created this magazine rushed the contents page because there are a lot of pictures just added in around the edging of the text. This tells me that they have just placed pictures there to fill any empty spaces that was left on there contents page. To improve this they could have added in snippets of information what was going to appear in each story. However, I like the green block on the page as it helps the writing stand out and looking through the rest of the magazine this seems to be a constant format.
