Here attached is a small version of my CLASH contents page (larger one is attached further down in the blog).Before I started the process of constructing my contents page I imagined it to be a very hard assignment as I didn’t realise how much detail and effort was actually needed in order to complete it to a professional standard. However now the assignment is completed, I’ve realised it’s turned out to a good standard. Practice from my preliminary task and experience from my front cover ensured that my skills were developing in order to produce good work.
Throughout the project I have made some drastic changes to my contents page and have had many un-successes. Through trial and error I have managed to compose a piece I am satisfied with. A huge mistake which resulted in putting the actual production process on hold was editing my photos, I edited 20 photos and soon realised after analysing them that they weren’t quite what I wanted for my magazine. I however didn’t keep the originals in result had to start again taking photographs. However I gained out of the issue experience in editing and practice with photography for my final photographs.
My main goal was to keep the contents page in kept with the house style of my magazine, in attempt to make my 3 pieces as professional looking as possible. I also decided to put one main image only in my contents page as I felt to emphasise the main feature any other images would draw attention away from it.
To keep in key with the professional look of the magazine I used the CLASH magazine logo frequently throughout so it can be easily identified by the audience. In my double page spread under the masthead I composed a tagline. The tagline has connotations of what the magazine is trying to signify, ‘young, fresh and a lyrical genius”. This is presenting to readers what CLASH is about, representing young ambitious performers.
