Second draft of contents page

This is my second draft of my contents page. To improve this i have made the writing a lot smaller, reducing it to size 10. I have also added more images in and a lot more writing so it seems that there is much more inside the magazine so people feel that the magazine is value for money. Another thing that i have done is made the spaces between the letters in "contents" bigger so it takes up the whole text box.

draft for double page spread interview

Interview with Liam Evans, the new up-and-coming indie star.

1. So, Liam, how is the new album going?
Ummmm, yeah (laughs) it’s going okay actually, very manic and stressful to begin with, but yeah we are pretty much on top of it all now. Just took a while to get going and get sorted.

2. Would you say that there was ever a time that you wanted to give up on it?
(Slight pause) No, I don’t think so; you know it will all be okay in the end.

3. Right then, tell us about your tour then? When does it start?
The tour will start on March the 12th in the O2 arena, and then will go all around the country for about...3 months I think (nervous laugh) I’m not actually that sure yet though.

4. Where are you looking forward to performing the most then?
Oh it’s definitely Manchester because that is where I originate from so it will be nice to go back there and see old friends again. Also, it is one of the biggest crowds, so should be the most banging. (Laughs)

5. Oh that’s really good then, do you have a lot of family living in Manchester?
Yeah, there is a few, my Mum and Dad especially and I haven’t seen them in a long time.

6. Right, now let’s get onto the juicy stuff. (Liam goes slightly blushed and seems a little awkward). There have been a lot of photographs recently of you and a certain female, is there something going on there or not?
I knew this question would come up. Phhhhh, ummmm, I don’t really know what to say to that really, I would prefer to say nothing but i know I won’t be able to do that (awkward laugh)

7. No, I’m afraid the readers of Flux are eager to know more about this mystery woman.
Right, well umm, let’s just say she is a very old and dear friend to me that has been with me a lot recently.... (Smiles and looks down)

8. Does that mean she is becoming more than a friend?
(Scratches his neck) Yeah, okay I suppose you could say that. I am not saying anymore now though, that’s me finished with that topic.

9. Okay then, thank you for your honesty. I just have one more question to ask you Liam, do you think you are going to be nominated for any of the music awards coming up shortly?
Well, I would certainly like to think I have a good chance of getting an award, but whether I do or not is a completely different story. I should really hope that I have done enough and worked hard enough to get my work noticed.

10. Maybe your new album will be what gets you the award?
(Laughs) Yeah maybe, if it is good enough, fingers crossed eh.

Well thank you very much for your time Liam, and for spilling the beans about the “mystery woman”
No problem, anytime, I suppose.

My final design for the front cover

I now have the final design for my front cover. I have chnaged certain bits of the draft so that it looks more professional and more likely to be sold in shops.

Possible fonts

I would appreciate it if you could post me which font you feel would best suit my masthead for my front cover.

Thank you.

Front cover draft 1

This is my first draft for my front cover. I will however try to upload a more appropriate font for the masthead. The colours will also possibly be worked with as well to make the magazine look more professional.
