This is the finishing product of my contents page for my school magazine, I followed the same house style as my front cover to display the fact that it "belongs" to my magazine i added 3 original photo's and one previously taken photograph onto this page to once again add a creative effect towards my magazine. I had edited two of my pictures on photo shop using the Magic wand tool for a second time and left the other two images at their natual state to show a range of photography states. I used the same colours and font and sizes on my contents as this flowed within my magazine. I also included an editors letter to the readers in an informal tone creating a friendship state of relationship to my target audience (school pupils, teachers and parents/carers), I introduced myself in this letter and I informed them on the basics of what they would experience within the issue as i feel if I was I reader for this magazine I would prefer too be informed and notified as I would then be able to decide whether the particular issue is right for me.
