PRELIM TASK: Flat-plan vs. Contents Page Comparison


There are many changes and features that have stayed the same on my contents page. I have kept the layout roughly the same which shows that I have been using my flatplan for help and inspiration for designing my contents page.

I have kept the layout similar for my contents page as I wanted it simple and clear. I have placed 'CONTENTS' more to the left side as I wanted all of the text justified and I wouldn't be able to have it justified if it was more to the center of the page. I wrote 'Page Numbers' instead of "Page" as I got feedback from a teacher that it would look unprofessional if I wrote "contents page" so therefore I decided to change it to "Page Numbers". The type of shot of my model on my flatplan is a mid-shot but I decided to take a full shot of her sitting down feeling comfortable, relaxed and happy. I also decided that I wanted the masthead of my magazine at the bottom on my contents page as it is different, I thought this was suitable as it shows what magazine the contents page is part of, it wasn't in my flat plan as I never thought about including my masthead at the bottom of my contents page but I decided to add it in after I experimented where I wanted to place it on the contents page. I did some research and found out that most professional magazines have atleast 50 pages so therefore I decided to try and have close to 50 page numbers in total and I kept that the same in my flatplan aswell as my actual contents page.
