Contents Page Example No.1

Layout
In this example, the contents page is very basic. The images and text are evenly spaced apart, with equal width between each index and number. There is a mast-head above the text and images.

Colour Scheme
In this example, the colour scheme includes purple and white. There is a highlighted box advertising a competition, therefore making it eyecatching for the audience. The white text box is clear and shows up well against the purple background. The contrast is bright and eye catching. The black font against the white text box is clear and easy to focus on and read.

Mast-head
The mast-head states- 'Contents', this is clear and informs the reader they are on the contents page and will be able to use the index in order to locate their desired information, on a specific page.

Mise en scene
In this example, I can see students studying looking at sheets as if analysing, alike the audience analysing the contents page. The contents page also states the season- 'Summer.' This suggests the magazine is released per season. However above the page numbers the magazine states- 'This week...' which gives the impression there is a new edition of the magazine every week.

Images
In this example, the contents page has two images of different students studying. This suggests the contents of the magazine is relative to studying and school work (being a school magazine), which makes it more applicable for a younger audience currently studying at school, who may be in a similar scenario to the people featured in the images. The images also highlight independent work, as the students are alone. This enforces the sense of self motivation and independence.
