Mock up sunday

Today I spent part of the day looking at my ideas for my contents page, and trying to work out what I didn't like about it. I found out that I didn't like that there wasn't much text on the page, which made it look less professional, because the pictures were on there own, which made them irrelevant. So I went back to the drawing board, to decide where I could include more text, which linked with the pictures. This is what I developed....
This is only a mock, but basically what I think my contents page should look like. I added a 'Feature' section, because I think that this is a fundamental part of any contents page, because this is what tells the reader what to expect to see inside. I like the use of text and images in this version of my contents page, because they are well balanced and easy to read, and they cover the main points in my magazine. The red square in the photo above is simply to show where a picture will go, as soon as I have taken it. The picture will consist of a small group of people, which will be a band featured in the magazine, because I think that I need to include some kind of band to make the magazine theme more believable.
I also decided to shrink the "contents" title and move it in the corner of the page, because I don't think people really need to see that it is a contents page, because they most likely will already know.
To Do List:
