Media Coursework - Second Contents Page

I decided to completely change my contents page as I felt it had the potential to be so much better. I didn't feel it had the look of a conventional contents page of a music magazine.
Firstly, I realised I was lacking an editor's note. Therefore I put one in and wrote of all the things I said my magazine would include. I feel the mode of address is appropriate towards my target audience.
Secondly, something else that is noticeable is the sideways heart recurring logo. I thought it was important to add that extra as it makes my product look official.
Like my last attempt at a contents page, I have continued with using colour blocks to divide the layout as I feel it gives it a more interesting and is a common look within magazines like mine.
I chose to add in a copy of my front cover and dissect in on the contents page to show what is featured in the magazine. I used pictures of the most significant stories and also slightly rotated them so it gave the page a scrapbook feel.
I also didn't forget the obvious codes and conventions such as page number, website and date, and remained with the continuous house style colours.
