Mock up contents page

This is my second contents plan. I had completley different ideas for this plan.
I started with a blank canvas but the first thing I thought about was the images. I thought I would use one of the images I had taken myself instead of using one from the internet. I went through all of the images I had taken and eventually used one of the model standing up against the wall. I didnt want it to be a plain image on its own so I had an idea from a contents page I had looked at and decided to put an effect on. I decided to make into three images but make each one smaller and lighter each time (as you see).
The next thing I thought about was the title 'CONTENTS'. With this also I didnt want it to be a plain title across the top of the page. I wanted to make a bit different. So I decided to split it into two. I thought that this worked really well so I decided to do this with most of the text.
After that I thought having some kind of symbol or shape on the page to put the text in. I decided to use two arrows and make them grey with a black background. Then I decided to fill them with something so I decided to use text. I wasnt sure what text to put in it so I thought I would put the name of the bands in it. I thought that the colour of the text in the arrows would be white because it stands out and you can see it clearly. I used the same technique I used for the title by putting the first few letters of the word the other way round.
Another point about the images is that when I put them on I thought they looked too plain so I decided to put a thin black border around each one so they would stand out.
