For my contents page I knew I needed lots of blank space, where I could write page numbers and information etc. I chose this spot because it has the blank space, but also in an interesting way, with the painted and graffiti’d wall, which I felt really reflected my font cover.

Next off I duplicated the layer, turned one black and white, then erased through his face and the graffiti. I gave my model only a slightly coloured face to keep in link with the distorted pictures on my front cover. Keeping the graffiti also shows a clear connection to my front cover.

After editing the original photo, I then added 5 other photos, each with my band members in, and overlapped them on my page. I also lowered the opacity of them, to give them an almost glare out of focus effect. Afterwards I added 3 titles in a bold, different font.

Next off I added the actual contents along with page numbers and short descriptions. These really needed to stand out from the busy background, and so I gave them an outer glow of white.

Finally I added the title. I used the same font as my front cover and also the same outer glow. I felt this made the two pages easily associated.
