I have already spoken about how I prodced the top bit of my contents page - Magazine logo, Black block bar, Contents and date of issue.
I then went on to put the picture of The Olivers onto the page, I chose this picture I took of the band because it is a wide angle shot of the band playing at their Jack Wills gig. I place this picture just under the black block on the left hand side of the page. Once I had the picture in the right place I then edited the picture but selecting 'Object' from the tool bar and the selecting 'Effect' I then chose the 'drop shadow' 'inner glow', 'outer glow' and 'embose'effect to edit my picture.
To the left of the photo, I used the 'rectangle' tool to produce another black box so I could put the website address for the magazine in it. I wanted the address to be horizontal so to do this I used the 'text box' tool, wrote the website in it and then used the 'rotate' tool to rotate it 90 degrees anti clockwise. I then place it over the black box i had already produced.
As the picture is on the left hand side of the page I decided to put the writing about what is on which page on the right hand side of the page. I headed each section, to do this I used the 'rectangle' tool to produce a black box. I then used the text box tool and wrote 'NEWS' in it, I then changed the colour to Yellow and the font is Trajan Pro. I used this so it links in with the other fonts.
Underneath this in red writing still in Trajan Pro font I wrote what the magazine consists of and on what page.
Underneath the picture I used the 'rectangle' tool to produce another black box. I then used the text box tool and in yellow font I wrote 'Cover Story'. Then under this I wrote 'The Oliver's with a little paragraph on what the article on The Olivers is about.
Under the paragraph I wrote in red font 'See full interview on pages 22-23' I did this in red so it would stand out.

I got all of the above ideas for my magazine contents page from this real contents page.. (below):
