In this front cover I have used the colours green and blue. The reason for this is that I did not have a black and yellow felt tip pen, so for this imagine the colours on here to be black and yellow. The reason I have used these colours are because they are bright and they contrast, this connotes that the college is a bright and happy friendly environment to be in. The image I have used is a college student that is got books upon his lap showing that he is studying hard, the books would a 'key prop' which means it is the most important prop on the page. The facial expression of the student is a black expression as he was not confident in front of the camera. As he does not have direct gaze. This shot is classed as a medium close up with only his face and shoulders in the shot. The setting of the shot will be in college as it is a college magazine. One of my articles is a article about how good the results are here. So I used a pun which is also a rhetorical question. This would drag readers into this and will be eager to read on. The sell lines would be that I am giving away free revision guides with this issue and how to get the latest coursework handbook.
For my contents page I did this at home so I had the colours to do my colour scheme correctly. Another reason I choose these two colours for my colour scheme is that it will help me for my real dance magazine, give me some practise for the real thing. The images used are the same as person as my front cover, but this time he is holding up two grades, but since I could not get actual grades to get the student to hold. So I got the student to hold up two other pieces of paper. The text I have used is just subheadings that explain the articles them self. I would class where the it tells you what page the article is on, and "don't miss" would be key words because they are words that not only inform people where to find the articles there want to read are, but what is not to miss, a key word it informs people what is important. I have not placed my logo or my slogan in the contents page because I feel like the slogan can only be on the front cover, whereas I forgot to put the logo on so that is why you can not see it. The layout is easy to understand for the reader, easy to understand because there is three big sections for the three biggest stories, so that will be where the main stoires will be and that is what attracts the reader. The main artcile and the sell lines. If I was to develop my magazine and change anything if I wore to do this again I would add my logo on both front cover and contetns page. I would also add the features section at the bottom of the contents page. Lastly I would also double check to make sure that there was no deadspace, although there is not much on my conents page I feel like there is to much on my front cover.
