School magazine

This was the first contents page we made for the school magazine as you can see it is very simplistic because their is lack of colour which is necessary in making your magazine stand out to the reader and also the fonts used are very basic however everything is very clear it just needs more added to it  to make it look visually better.

As you can see in this re-edit of are previous contents page we have made some simple yet effective changes to make it more appealing to the reader by editing the fonts to make them stand out by increasing the size and also colour scheme as well has improved because we now have a nice green background which is actually quite a soft colour to the human eye because it is associated with things like nature, we also added two pictures to the contents page because the reader will usually notice the pictures first because they are more interesting then text and finally we added a yellow star in the top right corner because this is the last thing the reader sees because they turn the page and the yellow really makes it stand out from everything else, the pupil of the week is similar to what a music magazine might do when they advertise a competition.


















For the front cover of our school magazine we used a mid shot of the expressive arts building, this gives the reader an idea of the location we are in and also as clues to what else is might be featured in the magazine, it always important to have a big picture for the front cover of the magazine because this is what readers see first and it is key to having a good magazine, it also important to make sure the picture is relevant to what your magazine is about for example if you had a rock magazine you most likely have a band head lining the front cover and could also feature props such as instruments. The picture we have used as you can see below is very clear because we have taken it outside and fits well with the title because of the green on the grass and trees it goes well together because they are eye friendly colours.
