Contents ideas

I want my contents page similar to this as my colour scheme will be orange, black, white and grey.

I would like to have the word ‘contents’ formed in a shape.

I would like my categories to be organised in columns to support the codes and conventions of a magazine.

I will have the page numbers on the secondary images to define what page that image goes to.

I will have one primary image on the contents page, which would be bigger compared to the secondary images, to show that image has its own feature article.

I will have pull quotes on an image to make the image and the contents page look unique.

I will have the artist(s) name big and bold to emphasise that they are the main feature in this issue.

I will have a range of social media to emphasise that my magazine embraces new technology.

I will have the date of the issue and state that it is NO.1 issue.

I will have a range of categories.

I will keep the subscription separate from the other categories.

I will have one primary image and a caption underneath.

I will have a small description of the artist underneath their image to inform the reader a little bit about the artist.

I will have the primary image on the one page, separate from the secondary images on the other page to emphasise that the artist is the main feature of that issue.

I would like new categories such as in this magazine with ‘radar’ and ‘live!,’ which makes the magazine unique as the new categories associate with that magazine.

I will state that my magazine is the UK’s NO.1 gig and festival guide as this would apply to my target audience as they normally attend gigs and festivals.

I will keep the colour scheme consistent, but if I were to make a category or a feature different I will place it in a coloured box or use the colour scheme differently.

For the ‘Band index,’ I will have the category placed on the side of the second page; joining the two pages together.

I will have the secondary images together, separate from the primary image. This is to emphasise that the artist is the main feature of that magazine.

I would not have the logo or name of the magazine in front of ‘contents’ as the shape outlining ‘contents’ will define the logo of the magazine.

I would like to have the front cover of the magazine on the contents page as pages tend to get taken out of magazines, which will then show what magazine and issue this page came out of.

I will have a range of natural photos (model not posing) and photos where the model is posing.

I will have a QR code that when scanned, connects to my blog.

I will have a rectangle band going across the top of the page to connect the double page spread together.

I will have the website at the bottom of the contents page as well as the other pages in my magazine to emphasise that my magazine uses technological convergence.

I will have the page numbers at the bottom of the contents page as well as the other pages.

I will have the page number being bigger on the primary image than the secondary image in the contents page.
