Transcript of Screen grabs contents
I used Quark to use design my school magazine contents page, I created a new
page with 3 columns. I then used the text tool on the left and inserted the title
and aligned is to the left corner at the top and scaled it so it would fit within the
two columns.
I then filled the box to the title in yellow with the solid fill took on the right with opacity
of 100%. I then used text tool to create text at the top of the third column to show the
featured articles that aren't always in the issue. I used capitals to make it standout.
Moreover, I then used the picture tool on the left with a cross in and imported the
main image for my contents page which I aligned across the two columns to make it
stand out from the rest of the articles. I then inserted two more pictures on the final
column which are smaller than the main image. I used the colour yellow because it
connotes a happy atmosphere and is bright.
Here is used the text tool to insert the second image on the third column for
one of my feature articles.
I then used text tool to create the first feature article. It outlines the what the image is about. Its in capital letters because i want it to stand out from the text I will later write underneath it, which explains the article more without giving the whole article away.
I used text tool to create the heading for one of the main articles in this issue which is also a double page , its in a larger font than the rest of the articles and is also more bold but is still in the same font. I then used text tool again to insert the page numbers of the article. It also has a yellow background so it has consistency with the masthead.
Here I used text tool again for the second ‘Featured Article’ I used capitals and
outlined it black so it stood out more. I also created a slight shadow so it would
be more noticeable for the reader.
Moreover, I used text tool to create a description underneath the featured
articles’ title. This just gives the reader more information. I aligned it to the
left and made the text box fit within the third column.
I then finished the third column, I inserted a text box using the text tool with a
description about the second feature article which also explains the image more.
The text is aligned left and is in small letters not capitals.
I inserted 6 different text boxes with text
tool and put the separate page numbers
for each of the articles. I gave it a black
outline and made it bold so they would
stand out, making the magazine easier
to follow.
I then inserted one long text box and wrote out the different
headings for the articles which are quite frequent in the
magazine. I made this font bold and added a black outline
to make it stand out more from the text, I then wrote
underneath, which gives a very simple description about
the article. This is in a smaller font, italic and doesn't have
the black outline.
Finally, to finish the second column I done the same as the first one, I inserted 6 different text boxes with
text tool to create page numbers which are bold and have a black outline. I then aligned them to the left
side of the second column. I then inserted a long text box with text tool and finished the rest of articles
with their mini descriptions which are italic, small and have no outline like the first column.
