Cover and Contents Page Plans



Before I can start to use InDesign to layout my front cover and contents page for my version of orpington college magazine, which I have named 'OC Life', I have to plan out how they will look. I have done this on paper, so that i can edit my different ideas as I go along. I have decided to start with two totally different designs, and then use different elements from each of them that I like.




This my plan for my front cover.


Box 1: The MastHead, in bold sans-serif font and in an appropriate colour that suits the main image.

Box 2: The Main Image, a medium close up of a student, edited on Photoshop to get rid of any flaws.

Box 3: The Straplines, outlining various features within the magazine

Box 4: the date and college logo
