Production Of contents Page





I had to copy the title of my magazine and edit the
word IN-D  and change it to contents. I done this to ensure that the
 colours and style of the effects remained the same. I also
added a black box behind the word 'contents so that I
 could Put it straight into my contentspage as an image on Quark Xpress
 Passport. 




Here I have saved the title IN-D as a JPEG file and imported
it into Quark XPress using a picture box.



















Here I have added frames for the layout of contents page using
picture boxes filled with a black background colour and I used
the word 'Contents' from my first screen grab and imported it as
 a JPEG into a picture folder.




















Here I have added my main headings to my title page. The
red and black follow my colour scheme and the font follows
 my production plan



















Here I have added my content. I used
a larger font for the numbers so that they stood out and I also
wrote a brief description for my stories and articles.




















Here I have added my subheadings. I have put these in red
so that they stand out. The subheadings also make the contents
page easier to follow and understand.



















Here I have added my editors letter. I have put this in black and
white to follow my colour scheme. The letter is fun and suitable
for my target audience.





















Here I have added the images onto my contents page. I imported
the images into a picture box which I fitted into the frames
that I had earlier made from black lines.




















Here I have added numbers to the images. I ensured that the
images related to the articles with the numbers on and that you
could clearly see the number. To do this I added a white box
behind each number.




Here I changed the layout ofmy contntes page because
 I felt that my contents page was too 'text heavy'. I used the
same images, fonts and colours and simply filmed the layout. 




















Here I put my pictures back in again. I also changed some
of my images so that my contents page looked brighter and
more interesting.



In order to make my images a suitable size
I had to resize them on photoshop using
cntrl and T and then I had to crop the image
using the crop tool above.




Here I have added the content back into my piece. I also
added more headings so that my contents page looked more
easy to read. The layout is much more clear.
