1. Cover image

2. For the cover image of my magazine I am
going to use a picture of a primary school
child as the magazine is for a primary
school. The main focus of my image is a
child colouring. The photo will be taken
from above the child with her/ him smiling
and looking up directly into camera. This
will give the image connotations of
confidence and enjoyment.

3. The picture will be a medium close up which
means that the picture will consist of
mainly the subject without a large areas
of background. I will also take photo
against a plain wall of a coordinating
colour to my colour scheme. This will
make the image simple and uncluttered
which will hopefully make the image stand
out and focus the audiences attention.
The child will be wearing the school
uniform of the relevant school which will
help the audience connect the magazine
with the school.

4. Headline -
The headline will be ‘school praised for
imaginative learning’.

5. The image will be on the bottom right of
the cover page, leaving the top and top
left side of the page with plenty of
negative space. This will leave me room
for titles and headlines ect.

6. I will use some effects on my photo I may
change the hue/ saturation to give the
colours more interesting and vibrant
which will appeal to my audience. I may
also add some effects to the drawing that
the child’s doing, I might possibly make it
look like cartoon that has come to life to
give the magazine a fun look and to
engage my audience more.
