PRELIM Contents page research

This is a "BSA" magazine contents page, as you can see the title has been placed at the top, right. This text is the biggest font used as it needs to stand out due to it being the title. It is also the only font with colour as well as the logo that is placed at the bottom, right of the page.

The heading "contents", is placed below the title and is the next biggest text. The different section within the magazine with the page numbers is listed below the heading. This is laid out in a basic format of how contents' pages usually be but this time being placed on the right.

The images are placed on the left side of the page, with three images of the school, one being of the students, the middle one is the field of the school and the bottom one is of an assembly held within the school.

This gives an idea of how the school may run or what activities are held within the school. Smaller text is used below the images, saying what or when the images were taken.

At the bottom of the page, small text has been used for other information that may be needed, this is placed in columns.

The contents page as a whole is very basic due to less colours being used and the few images and simple font style. Yet it is very structured and well organised as information is easily spotted and clear for the audience to find what they are looking for.

This is a "Caterham School" contents page, the title of the magazine is placed at the top, right but using a very small font size. This is different to the usual format of the title being the biggest font, this is maybe because on the cover it already clearly shows the title therefore it is not necessary.

The word "contenst" is placed at the top, left with the year of the magazine as well "2012" is placed next to it. These two text are the biggest font used on the page, giving it importance as it is the heading.

Three images have been placed below the heading, two of the images are smaller that the other one and one is positioned above the other. The images are square shaped, therefore showing edit has been done to the images as the usual is a rectangle.

The contents of the magazine is then listed below the images, with another image placed in between the columns, this makes it look not as professional as images have already been placed above, so it was not necessary to have another between the text.

The different sections of the magazine, is shown by the use of numbers being placed before the text, these numbers are all different colours, making the page look very colourful due to it being a school magazine.

No other information has been placed on the page, may be due to the lack of space or because the information is within the rest of the magazine.

The contents page as a whole, is very colourful which is suitable as it is a school magazine, therefore making it have that "children" affect with the use of a couple of images and colourful numbers.

This is a "Prep School" magazine contents page, as you can see the title is placed at the top, left. The font  is similar size to the title "contents", but the word "contents" is bold as it is the main title on this specific page.

The edition of the magazine has placed beside the title with the year slightly smaller than the season due to the magazine maybe having different season magazines. The issue number has also been placed at the top, on the right.

The different sections of the magazine has been listed below the title with the number at the beginning to show which page has that specific information. The text is small with the colour black used, this gives a simple yet sophisticated look.

Images are used which are placed on the right side of the page, the four images are of same size and shape, this keeps it looking neat and also in an album format. Numbers in red and black boxes are placed on the images, this is to show which page the image has been take from in order to see the image bigger.

Other information that may also be important has been placed at the bottom of the page, the font size used is very small, this shows the importance of each text on the page by using different sizes.

The contents page as a whole is very basic but well organised with not much colour but keeping a theme of black, white and red. The only part which is eye-catching would be the images used which is also important for the audience as they get an idea of how the school is.
