I have decided that I like the layout of this and so I will keep it like this. However I have experimented with colour this time to show some consistency throughout all of my designs. It still looks sort of different but this is just a draft and so I can improve it further. I think I wil change the useof colours by having them slightly more similar to my front cover. I may add a few more features to the background so that it doesnt look so simple.
I have changed the colour of the text on this copy so that more colours from the front cover are used showing consistency. I have also added anchorage to the photo as I have found that most magazines have this with the photographs that are used. It could be seen as one of the conventions. However comparing this to my double page spread I have found that the white background doesnt really tie in with it which could maybe make them look completely different to each other. I have tried t show consistency throughout with the use of colours but I dont feel this is enough.
I have changed the background colour so that it looks slightly more similar to the front cover. Even though the front cover mostly consists with the colours blue and purple there is a flash of red that is also clear to see. Because of this I have decided to use that colour as the main background theme. The yellow text against it works quite well but the picture doesnt work well with it as it sticks out too much.
I have selected a chunk from my double page spread picture and made it the background for this contents page. Decreasing the opacity and fill bucket has made it fade out so that the rest of the text is visable enough to see. I like this effect but I dont think it works well with the picture and front cover. It is consistent with my double page spread but not with the front cover. Also the black blob ruins the way it looks and this has been a struggle to remove. I dont think I will use this as my final piece but I do like it as an idea for a background.
