CREATE THE CONTENTS PAGE..

Using Photoshop to

After creating the shapes on my A4 page, I added

some headings to the page using the font ‘Texture

road’ which I used on the cover of my magazine. I

choose to use this text as it has a rocky feel to it

however it is still easy to read and not to decorative

as these are only sub headings.

I decided to use a photo from my second

photoshoot as the main image as the photos took in

the studio had white backgrounds which would

blend in with the page background too much.

I also added my main title in the same font as the

cover

I’ve started to add more text in such as the date

and sub headings especially in the black left

hand side box as this is where I wanted to put

condensed information . I got my inspiration from

NME as they have a band index indicating what

bands are mentioned in this issue. I liked this and its a clutter-free way to display your contents.

Next, I added artist features, with the smaller headings in the font ‘trash hand’ as it reminds me of

something that would be in NME.

At the bottom of the page I put a feedback box which is

present in a lot of magazines.

Gig photo to correspond with above text and to

make left side look more

interesting.

I added this small effect to add more

variety to the page and I

think it looks good.

Band details

I put my photos from the third shoot here to add some males to the page. I did them in the style of a Polaroid photo and rotated them to

make them look interesting
