1. A blue font is used to appeal to
both sexes so that the school
magazine appeals to a larger
audience.
I also used blue because blue is a
bright colour which attracts the
readers attention, however Blue is
not an overdomating colour
because pupils are also attract to
the articles which are inside the
magazine.
This is the schools Strap line, I placed the strap line on top of the
master-head to give effect of pupils having an idea of what is
going to be inside the magazine. Also the strap line represents
the magazines targeted audience because the information inside
the strapline relates to the target audience. Example, my
magazines strapline it has GCSE tips which shows the audience is
pupils who are in year 10 or year 11.
At the bottom I thought it would be useful to add
additional information for students, therefore I
added the schools website address.
Front Cover Analysis
This is a mid shot image which is
used as the main image of the
schools magazine. I used this
image because it shows a natural
background of Students doing
work and this is what the school
represents; pupils working hard to
do well.
“ABS” masthead font has an
edger and artistic appeal to it
symbolizing that Acland
Burghley school spealising in
Art. The colour blue is used
to also symbolise that ABS
has many bright students,
and this represents the
schools youth.
I used a black outline affect
to create additional boldness
to make the font stand out.
2. Contents Page
At the top of the page I added
the Master head to show
consistency throughout the
magazine. This also
familiarise the pupils which
the magazines type of font to
make the magazine
recognizable to most
students.
Here is all the pages which
is going to be inside the
magazine. I also labelled the
pages with numbers to help
students locate the correct
page and this helps
students because they can
turn directly to the page
which they want to read.
Through the magazine I
have used the same types
of font to also give the
feeling of consistency
throughout the magazine
and this makes the
magazine look more
professional because the
same type of font and
layout is used throughout.
I also added 3 images onto the contents page. This is to
give students a image of what the school has the offer and
what different faculties the school has in it.
Also by adding photographs to the contents page, it makes
it look more interesting and appealing to the students
because most students do no like to read a magazine that
only has writing with no images.
