After much research on music magazine contents pages I
gathered a lot of information, tips and inspiration which I would like to use
when designing my contents page. Here are my findings;
Columns are very important on a contents page and so I must be able to follow a common construction of columns - the number of columns I wish to have and the spacing and positioning of those columns.
Furthermore, the page numbers on certain magazines are displayed quite differently to the font on the page - the use of different colours is common. From my research I have also found that so magazine chose to use shapes with page numbers within.
Font is also a factor I have found interesting while researching music magazine contents pages. I found two different examples of contents pages from two different music magazines; Q and NME. These magazine use very different fonts. Also, the masthead of the page is different as well.
Q magazine's contents page masthead is Q Contents while NME's masthead is NME THIS WEEK. I have found this interesting and so I want to experiment with the masthead of my contents page as Ii had originally believed the contents page must state CONTENTS as the heading.
