Reflection

This task gave me inspiration of what a good contents page looks like and what it includes. Looking at the cover lines also helped me get an idea of what sort of storylines I would like to use in my magazine. Every contents page must include page numbers. Therefore, it’s all about how you use the page numbers in your design to make it stand out. It is important to make sure the contents page follows the same theme as your front page as readers should be able to tell they’re from the same magazine. This means following the same colour theme and similar fonts. I also need to make sure I include headlines that are suited to my target audience and fit their interests. The contents page is all about making the contents of your magazine seem entertaining, attractive and informative.
