Finalised contents page

This is my finalised contents page I believe that this has gone well as I kept to my contents draft as I felt that nothing needed to be drastically changed. I kept to the house style of my magazine and this simplistic layout makes it easy for the audience to see clearly where the information is. I used the same three colours as my for my double page spread and front cover, this was to also stick to the house style and make the magazine look professional and not too overwhelming, but I also added a grey to the background of the masthead, this was to make the masthead more appealing as I felt that without it the masthead looked too plain. Although, I used a brighter blue for the contents page as I felt that this was necessary in attracting the audience's attention to the things that were important like the page numbers, which I also added a border to, to further this. I used the masthead from my front cover and this was because when I deconstructed an NME contents page before I saw that they done it and I thought that it worked well so I would adapt that into mine. I used a variety of fonts that made things stand out, for example for the titles of the contents information, the word 'MAIN' is in big, bold font that will attract the audience and make it clear where the specific information is. I also made key words or phrases in either a different font or colour to make them stand out clearly and grab the attention of the audience. Another thing I done was clearly laid it out so that the information was well structured as I felt that this was needed for a contents page as when I done some research into them I felt that the ones with a simple structure had a greater effect as it was clear and easy for the audience to understand. The only thing that I am not pleased with is the main image, this is because I had originally planned to have a picture of Joel performing to replicate him at the Mobo Awards but I couldn't find the right location that would make this look believable.
