The language is a decent font and is a bold plain colour which also means it stands out against the background. The 'contents' at the top of the page stands out because it is a white font which stands out against the background and is also a unusual font which will catch the readers eyes.

Analysing Photos.

I took this photo so I could promote where to smoke on the college grounds. I would use this photo to show that you are not allowed to smoke on the college grounds.

I also got this photo to promote where you can smoke around the college.

This photograph shows that when you are at college and are doing work you can still be with your friends and have a laugh. This is shown by one of the students laughing whilst looking at the book.

This is a good photograph which shows that the student is engaged in her studies. This is shown by her looking through her planner whilst still having a smile on her face.

This photograph shows that if you have a study period you can share it with your friend and you can do the work together.

Digital Mock Up.

This is the digital mock up of what my college magazine front cover is going to look like. Where the conventions are located is where they will be on my front cover.

Front Page Planning.

Masthead Fonts;

This font will be used when I start my magazine. This specific font will be used on the masthead. The fonts below are the five fonts that i think will be most suitable for the masthead. This is because they all will stand out against the background. The fonts are all basic which means you will be able to read them without difficulty. When I do my final design i will use one of the five fonts below for the masthead.



Masthead Font- Colour;

For my college magazine I have chosen the font Lucida Handwriting. I have chosen this because it is a nice clear font which will also stand out against the background. When I chose the font I then had to decide what colour i should use and have tested out five different colours. The colours below will all stand out against the background because they are all bright and will also catch the readers attention.

The ideology of the college magazine will be to encourage students that this is the right college for them to go to and that they can still have a good social life aswell as an education. This will be good information for the students so that they can enjoy their social life whilst getting an education. If the students that goto the college will feel more encouraged to work harder as well and it would set a positive example.

The audience for the college is the students that already attend the college. This is because it will give them information throughout the magazine. The magazine will not promote the college, this is because it is only for the students that attend the college.

The magazine will represent the college and the students that attend. It would represent students because students are stereotyped as been negative in the media. The magazine will promote the college in a positive way and it will show that not all students are the same.

The writing is a descent size font which also makes it easier to read. The barcode is in the bottom right hand corner and has a blue attachment to it which will be the date that the magazine was issued. The subtitles are in blue and black.

College Magazine;

I found this image of a college magazine on google images.

The colour scheme is very important to this magazine cover as the background is black so they will have needed to get bright bold colours that stood out. The masterhead on this image stands out really well because it is a bright colour and is in a large bold font. With the other writing been in white and yellow they stand out as the main image has a lot of black on it so the colours stand out really well.

The main image is a medium close up which shows good detail on what the model is wearing and if you look at it closely you can read what is on the books. The image shows alot of detail on the models clothes and especially non his face. This image is important because it shows that the model is happy and it looks like he is having a good time at college. The image also shows that college students can wear what they want which may appeal to people who want to ditch the school uniforms.

The barcode stands out well on this background aswell as it is white against a black background and it is in the bottom left hand corner. This is a good place to put the barcode because if the magazines are stacked on the shelf the barcode will be showing which usually has the price either above it or down the side.

The sub-headings on the magazine are in bright bold colours which will also stand out and they are the same colour as the masterhead which shows a consistent colour scheme throughout the front page of the magazine. Some of the sub-headings are in white which goes with the background of the magazine as it is in black.

The font on this magazine is bright and bold. This is so that the text will stand out from the background. The bold font stands out and catches the readers/buyers attention.
