This what I have made so far for the contents page. In my design I continued to use the same colour scheme which I used on the front cover. The title is at 150 front size and underneath the title I added the date and website link to show the reader the date it was released but also advertise the website. On the right hand side of the page I added a issue number at the top of the page and next to it a picture of the front cover. I did this cause I thought I could use some of the ideas from existing magazines which I research before for example Q magazine has both issue number and the front cover on the same side of the page. The logo is next to the magazine on my contents page.
As you can see the front cover is next to the issue number which is smaller than most of the titles. Also on my contents page I have 4 locations for pictures which are a bigger font than the rest of the stories on the page. This would separate the big stories from less important stories. The number of pages are at the far sides of the magazine leaving space for the bigger stories that will have the images in the middle. The colour scheme will give the text some variety and importance as it symbolises what type they are. For example Gold is used for headings and Black for stories. The background colour sticks to the front cover as it borders are white so it fits to the style of the magazine. To get this together I used guidelines to accurately create a borders to help place these in the right position. Plus it can help me locate the middle of the page so I don't overlap the opposite side of the double page spread.
