Table of Contents Template

For my table of contents template, I decided to replicate similar magazine table of contents. I chose to get my inspiration on format, fonts, and design from Women's Health magazine, a magazine I have previously researched. My group and I are going in order of months, being December-March of 2019. I chose a bold, but eligible font for the date on the top to stand out to the reader. I included the name of the magazine under the date in a smaller font but all caps, as a way of promotion to the audience reading. I chose a black color for all the words to provide cleanliness and structure, so when I include a picture or two on the left, it can include color, thus balancing the color on the page. The subheadings of "food, exercise and beauty/wellness" are in all caps and bold. This was a replication of Women's Health as a way to draw the readers eyes to it, so they are able to be directed to the correct page efficiently. The format I chose was a "two content" type layout with a photo on the left and information on the right. Women's Health Magazines usually have 2-3 table of contents pages separated by ads, and are all different types of layouts. They are usually fun and different, but can still be easily followed. I included a large majority of the articles and their corresponding page numbers, set under a specific category, to help the audience be directed to their desired place quickly and orderly.
