School magazine

The first task for our A Level media course was to produce a school magazine that included both a front cover and a contents page.

 

 

Initially, before beginning the school magazine we had to go out and collect photographs that we could possibly consider using both in our front cover and contents page. I decided to stick to a blue and yellow colour theme as these were the colours on the school logo. I adjusted the image and enlarged it to the size of the entire front cover. The largest piece of text on the cover is the title to make sure that it stands out. I also included the schools logo and an image taken on the school ground to emphasis which schools my magazine is representing. The headlines on the sides are the typical conventions of a magazine and provide information about what included inside the magazine.



For the contents page I decided I would stick with a plain white background with black writing as this would stand out on the page. I kept the same styled font throughout the front cover and the content page which were century gothic and trijan pro as these fonts were easy to read and look similar to what the conventions of a magazine look like. I had two images included to represent the stories that were involved throughout the magazine itself.
