Mock up Contents Page

For my contents page I took inspiration from a magazine called DOR. For one of their contents pages they used postitnotes toput th information about what was in the magazine. I tried to do this for my magazine. Altough when I took the pictures they didn’t look as effective as i would have wanted so i decided to scrap that idea and stick tomy original flat plan contents page.


I wasn’t impressed with the lighting that was produced on this shoot. As I took this photo at home I didn’t have any professional lighting equipment. I used lamps and main lights but they were as effective as if I had used professional light boxes in a studio. The background of the post its looks really dark and doesn’t fit in with the bright youthful vibe of the rest of my magazine. I tried to manipulate this image by taking away the dark background and replacing it with a bright background but this made the post its look fake and it didn’t look as effective as I would have liked. 

I decided to stick more with my original flat plan for my contents page and I feel this was much more effective and worked so much better.
