Front Cover Analysis

School Magazine

My magazine is called ‘KHS.’ I chose this name because it is precise and is the schools name. The color scheme of my masthead is black and yellow, I decided to use these colors because they are the school’s traditional colors. I decided to make the letters big and bold with a black outline to help it stand out and also act like a logo at the same time as being my masthead.

    My main image is a  medium shot of a sixth form student named Tom and he takes up most of the cover. I didn't include any other images  on my cover because I want my main image/article to get the most attention.

     I have used seven sell lines, one pug and a pull quote. The purpose of these are to show what content the magazine contains, make people want to read and find out more. Again I used the color scheme of black, white and yellow. I also made a slogan which I think is catchy and easy to remember and a footer with additional information.  To create this cover I used Adobe In Design and Abode Photoshop.

       Overall I am pretty pleased with my magazine cover. I think it is informative and has a fairly good layout.

Main Image

 These are the photos I took for my school magazine cover. The model in the pictures is a Year 12 pupil called Tom, I chose Tom because he is an ideal male student. Number one and three are medium shots and number two is a medium close up. The pictures were took with a Canon 70d.

 1.                                                              2.                                                             3.

 The main image I chose is below, the purpose of my main image is to show what/who the main article is about, Tom represents a sixth form student and hopefully would attract people into buying the magazine. I removed the background of this image using Photoshop.
