Contents Page Style Models

NEA CONTENTS PAGE PLAN

I am going to base my magazine contents on this contents page by the Official PlayStation Magazine and this contents page from GamesTM.

I am going to have subheadings for each section (ie interviews and genres of games) for the audience to easily locate a page.
Like GamesTM, I am going to have a line beside the “Contents” title with the website and the issue number so that the reader can know what issue number this is and that there is a website they can access for exclusive content. I am strategically placing the website at the top to entice the reader to visit the website as according to research, people notice the top of a page more then the bottom. Therefore I am going to put the important articles within this issue towards the top so that people take more notice of it.
This house style (title and then line with the website and issue number) will be a house style I will also use on my DPS to create consistency.
I am going to use the same/similar colours I have used on my front cover to keep with the house style of my magazine and the colour scheme I am using to create consistency.
At the bottom of the page, I am going to have in small font the page number and the name of my magazine (Level Up) because to the audience it is not important, hence why O will have it small, however it is a necessity of a contents page/any page of a magazine so the audience know what page they are on.
