My front cover, my double spread, and my contents page!

My front cover

 

My contents page!


My double page spread!



Here is my FINISHED results of my coursework. Although I was pretty certain I had completed my coursework as I have said on my blog, one I had got into school I decided to make a few changes to my coursework. Although they were not big changes they were certainly noticeable!
My front cover - I added an issue number to it - makes my magazine look more like a magazine, and I also changed my heading font and added inner shadows and borders to make it stand out.

My contents page - I changed quite a lot about my contents page as I got told it did not have a lot to it and did not really grab people's attention. I also thought it did not include enough on it, and there was too much white!
I changed my 'contents' heading completly and made it bigger so it look much more bold and appealing. I then also added the mast head 'of this magazine' and applied many effects to this heading so it had a background edge which was the same colour as the colours I had being using throughout my coursework.
I then also added a 'plus' masthead and then added simple headings to make the magazine look more 'full', rather than a music magazine including hardly any pages which noone would want to buy.
The changes I made to my double page spread is clear, I added a brush effect to fill up the white blank at the top right of my page, and I made my heading bigger with effects added to it to look professional.
