Final Contents Page

This is my final contents page. I have made a few more adjustments since the last draft and decided that this is the one. I decided to go with the black ground rather than the white because i simply thought that it looked better. I know that the white is obviously a bright colour but the front cover was white so i thought that it would fit to have the contents page black. The mast head of this is 'Contents' which it has been since the first draft, i have changed it slightly by using tools on PowerPoint. I also felt that having the 2 music notes didn't look very good so i decided to have a strip of notes just under the masthead. I also added a logo which i didn't include on my front cover because the music note is also part of that image. The 'MM' stands for 'More Music' and underneath it says more music. I got this idea from 'Q' magazine which i showed in my research, it is a lot different but i liked how the 'Q' was in the background of the mast head 'Contents'. For my images i wanted them similar to what i used on my template images. These are some of the images i took:




For the award, i didn't actually have one so i took a picture of an ornament from my house which i thought looked like an award. There are so many different shaped awards so i don't think that this looks any different.

This was the first one i took, i  needed it to be against a white back ground so i put a blank piece of paper behind it. It didn't really take hoe i would have liked, the lighting isn't very good because there is a shadow and also the paper behind isn't straight so that really didn't work.

Another try, the lighting really didn't work well here, also i didn't get the background right. There was a shadow again as well. For the next try i think that i need to position the background right with the ornament and also fix the lighting issues.

This is the final one that i took, this came out reasonably well .The background blended in good and the lighting is better. I did edit it a bit by changing the brightness and the contrast to make it lighter and to change the shadow.






I just decided to replace the image of Cheryl Cole with an image of my friend.

This was just a simple easy image to take. I knew how i wanted her to look and i knew that i needed a simple background this one wasn't white because i didn't want all the images to look the same. I choose to have the image up close, and i like the lighting, it took well. So i  decided not to take another one because i am happy with this image.


Then finally i replaced the image of Justin Beiber with an image of another friend. I already had images of him because i used him in my college magazine. So i thought it would just be relevent to use one of them images i took, obvioulsy one of the ones that werent used in my college one.

I decided to use this one because i thought that it is really good because i wanted my images to be head shots. I edited the lighting a bit, because i thought it was a bit dark. I also thought that it was quite similar to the Justin Bieber image.
