November Calendar

This is the calendar that I have created for November 2014. As you can see, all posts have been uploaded by the time that I planned.

Contents Page Comparison

For inspiration for my contents page, I looked at one from Mojo, the Music Magazine. I liked the layout of it as all the main images were situated together, at one side. This made the page look tidy and easy to read which would appeal to my target audience of indie rock music fans.
I also like the inclusion of the 'editor's note' at the bottom of the page as it gives credit to the creator of the magazine and gives people an insight into what they did in order to create their part of the magazine.

Contents Page Progress

I have progressed to create my editor's note. I have wrote about one of the articles that is featured explaining what is to be included in it. I have also made a light purple box surrounding the images on the left so they stand out more. When the box was not there, I thought that they faded into the background and therefore, were not clear enough for people to see if they buy my magazine.

This is the finished text that I am using on the contents page. Currently, I like how the text is displayed however, I may change some of the articles that I am featuring to include other more well known artists.

Lesson Plan

During this lesson I plan to continue to type up the different articles that are going to be featured on the contents page. I kept the colour change that I completed the previous lesson as I think it is the best colour that I could use in my magazine in order to stay with the same magazine colour scheme.

Progress - Contents Page

I disliked the colour of the text that I originally used in my previous post about the contents page. When I added more text, it looked as though the page had too much white and none of the text stood out in comparison with others. I have changed it to a dark purple as it still stands out on the page but it is also different to the white text that has been used for titles.

This session I have started to create my contents page.

I have kept with the colour scheme I planned to use before and it has worked well up to now for my magazine. I have added the pictures in that I want to have featured. I have placed all of the boxes in the right place and I am happy with the colours that I have used for them.
