Drafting and planning

I have drafted my contents page in terms of layout and images, my aim is to somehow replicate a mixmag idea of a contents page:

I have included the magazines masthead to keep the magazine clear and consistent similar to mixmag. I have wrote 'contents' to ensure the reader that this is where they will know where to find certain stories. I have included the main image of the artist my main story and double page spread is on and secondary images which is similar to the mixmag sort of approach. This keeps the magazine looking busy and full to the rim. The numbers over the pictures tell the reader which pages they will find these artists on. 

To add a realistic edge to my magazine I will now have to add in the stories included in my magazine and think of edgy stories and titles to give them on my contents page.
