Final Contents Page

Here is my final contents page for my main task music magazine.

For the background I found an old styled image and using Photoshop, filtered the image to grayscale. I inserted an image frame and opened up the grayscale background.

Then I copied and pasted the moon image from my logo on the magazines front page across the top of the page, changing the layers to make the few overlap.
I then inserted a text frame over the top of this 'banner' and changed the font to 'Letter Gothic Std', added the shadow effect, sized it to 44pt and coloured it white. 

Over a period of time I have taken and gathered together a collection of photos for my contents page. 

To begin with I inserted the 'Mammals' images on the right side of the page using an image frame and free scaled it to the size I wanted. On the bottom two I adjusted the brightness using Image Effects to 29. I copied and pasted the image from the front cover of my magazine of the 'Mammals' title logo and duplicated it by 4. I put one behind the other twice and adjusted the colour using duotone on Image Effects to a pale brown and green. I inserted a text frame above the images and using the Letter Gothic Std font in white and size 14pt, wrote the index for that feature with the main point being in a dark blue. I inserted a separate text frame for the page number statement and changed the colour of the writing to a light purple. 

I then went onto insert my main image which is the central feature of the contents page. Using a yingyang sign I found on the internet and copied and pasted several of them onto a Word Document and grouped them to make a type of banner which borders the main image and using the rotation tool fitted fine. I inserted a text frame above the image and wrote the index for that feature. I inserted a separate text frame for the page number statement and changed the colour of the writing to a light purple. I inserted an image frame of the artists name which I had created on fontspace and using Image Effects colorised the name logo; I separately colorised the 'e'. 

I made 3 different sized image frames in the bottom right area and inserted the 3 different images of the Bombay Bicycle Club concert. I adjusted the opacity of these photos in Windows>Properties to 70%. I inserted the logo of the band name which I found on Google Images and using Image Effects colorised the title to yellow and adjusted the shade to 50%. I inserted a text frame on top of the bottom image and using the Letter Gothic Std font in white and size 25pt, wrote the index for that feature. I inserted a separate text frame for the page number statement and changed the colour of the writing to a light purple.

I then created 3 image frames that overlapped in the bottom left corner of the page and inserted the same image of the beach photo 3 times. I moved the image within the frame to displace the lining of the overall image. I inserted another 2 image frames on top the feature image and inserted the article name logo I had made on Fontspace and changed the colour of the second name 'Pack' to a darker grey rather than white using the grayscale in Image Effects; I also blurred both the title images to 4.0. I inserted a text frame to the right of the image and wrote the index for that feature using the Letter Gothic Std font in white and size 14ptI inserted a separate text frame for the page number statement and changed the colour of the writing to a light purple.

Using Fontspace again, I had created another subheading for the contents page and positioned the multiple writing images in the lower space of the page in the centre; I adjusted the size of each one. I created two image frames either side of the main point of the feature and inserted the sunflower image I had found on Google Images. I inserted a separate text frame for the page number statement and changed the colour of the writing to a light purple.

Finally, I did 4 rows of 3 different sized image frames that overlapped and inserted 4 different images, 1 for each row but repeated 3 times. I inserted a separate text frame for the page number statement and changed the colour of the writing to a light purple.I inserted another text frame below the page number and wrote the index for that feature using the Letter Gothic Std font in white and size 12pt.
