School magazine Cover & Contents page

For my school magazine, i have designed a front cover and a contents page. I have designed both these pages on Microsoft Publisher, with this publisher I found it very easy to produce my pages as there were all the necessary tools to be used in publisher, for my first page I created a cover page, for this I inserted many images to help this page appeal to its audience. I used the schools logo and placed it in the top left corner.  For my cover photo I used a photo I took of the school previously. This photo fits in well of showing that the school is of an old style one as well. I have also included two other smaller photos at the bottom of my cover page to show what stories have been included into the magazine.

Also for my school magazine, I have created a contents page to go with my cover page. For this contents page I wanted to keep it simple as I thought if there was too much going on in the page then it would result in readers being confused and result in them not wanting to read it. So to do this I had a simple heading of Contents using a Harabara text which I downloaded. This text was simple and stood out from its white background with its mat black fill. Also to keep this interesting to the readers I have inserted 3 images which I also taken in my photo shoot.  I bordered the text off from the images with a blue rectangle which matches in with the schools colours. Finally I filled in the rest of the space with the magazines page numbers with the titles as well.
