Example images for contents page:

PLAN: EXAMPLE OF PAGE:

EXAMPLE IMAGESThese are some photographswhich I felt I could use for mycontents page because theyhad similar qualities tophotographs that I saw oncontents pages in my marketresearch.

People don’t have to be keeping eye contact with the camera, the kinds of camera shots tend to be more naturalistic.

The photographs vary in distance, ranging from long shots to close-ups.

The photographs show people in action, doing things that we know and expect of them, (eg playing a guitar)

These are photographs that I do not feel would be appropriate for a contents page:

There is too much empty space in this photograph, a contents page is generally very busy and full of visual information.

Photographs that are too posed are inappropriate and look unprofessional.

Every photograph needs to match the target audience and magazine genre, photographs of older people or people who are not “Indie” would look out of place.

Photographs that are very close up are not generally used because they make it very hard to tell who the person is as when the photographs are used in a contents page they are often very small images.

The photographs should not be blurred and discoloured as it does not create a strong aesthetic.
