The Creation - Contents Page

Whilst creating my DPS, I started to create my contents page, however had to edit photos as I changed the images that I would be using in my DPS.

Draft 1:

Originally, I wanted to use this image for my contents page, but due to it being used by my double page spread, I had to find another to take its place. This position of image, though, was very versitile and could be used on almost any page.

Draft 2:


This was a plan, taken from the 2nd DPS draft. I really like the soft colours and was trying to produce a page that brought across Eloise Smith's elegant side, however, it felt to female for my wide teenage audience.

Final draft:

I really liked Mojo's impressive, powerful contents pages, featuring an artist who is interviewed later on. They were usually single or group shots but they were very striking and I felt this way, or one with many smaller pictures to make a collage, was the way to go.



This is quite a big jump, as I forgot to copy and resave my work, so this is the final product I came up with. I edited this image to make it striking and allow room for the text to move around it. I really like this outcome as I find the image is really strong and really finished the whole page off. Mojo's contents pages heavly inspired this piece but I took my own take on it with the fonts and the colour choices. It is also busier than MOjo's usually are, suggesting the teenage audience.

Teacher's comments:
  • maybe too many fonts- cut them down
(have acted on this for my final piece and changed the 'contents' to the same font as 'features' and 'regulars')
