My finished contents page

For the contents page I used an existing contents page from a magazine as a template, changing some elements such as colours, text, and image placement. If I were to really put this contents page in a magazine I would take photos for it, which as you can see would be placed at the top and bottom of the page. There would be two large images at the top of the page, which would attract attention and be the first thing the viewer saw. At the bottom there is one large image and two smaller images overlapping it, which makes the page look less rigid and strict and gives it a fun feel. At the top of the page is the magazine title, Bishbosh, almost identical to that on the front cover, minus the glow. I didn't feel the glow was necessary on this page as I liked the mirrored effect of the words "Bishbosh" and "Contents" directly underneath, in black and white. The content of the magazine is written on individual different coloured lines, which start faint and gradually get more solid. I like this idea as personally I feel it makes the page easier and more interesting to look at, especially as I made the black writing have a shadow and therefore stand out of the page and not blend in which the colours. The colours work well as they are predominantly pink yellow and blue which co-ordinates with the front cover, yet the other colours such as green and purple mix it up a bit and keep it exciting.
