This is my my first draft of my contents page. They key conventions of a contents page are:

• Editors hello
• Page numbers
• Hyperbole and superlatives in headlines
• Images and word clues
• Graphic illustrations and designs
• Reminder of magazines name and mission statements

I think for a first draft is is good and it has some key features of a contents page. It has a:

• Title explaining what sort of page it is
• A cut out image
• A good list of pages with real sounding articles
• An extra feature which is an advert

There are some things missing however and also some thing I don’t like. Firstly I think it doesn’t really fit in with my genre and I want it recognisable as part of my genre and part of my magazine at a first glance, which it isn’t.  Another thing is the layout I wish I spent a little bit more time on the layout just to make it look cleaner and more professional. 

Overall I am fairly happy with this as a first draft but there are a number of things I want to improve in the second draft.
