School Magazine And Comments

Front Cover




This is a mock version of my school magazine. I created this through Adobe Illustrator and also edited the pictures through Adobe Photoshop. The layout of the magazine is very plain, simple and easy to understand and read. I have made the main image the only image and the largest image on the magazine. The main image is of a very well known girl in the school, so when the reader first sees the magazine they will see the main image and they will want to get the magazine as they know who is on the front cover and would like to find out why.

I have made the main teaser the biggest writing on the page, this is because when the reader sees that the magazine has published some prom pictures the reader will want to get the magazine and quickly find the prom pictures section.

I have also made the price of the magazine quite large, this is because it is very rare for a magazine to be free so when to the reader sees that the magazine is free more people would want to get it and read it.
If I could improve the magazine I would make the main image better quality and also include more topics that you could find in the magazine onto the front cover.




Contents




This is the mock contents page for the school magazine. Again it is very plain and simple and only contains the main topics, unlike an ordinary magazine which contains nearly every topic that is in the rest of the magazine. I have kept the colour scheme very basic and not so bright however not so dull.
I created the contents page using Adobe Illustrator.

If I was to make improvements to the magazine then I would add loads more topics that are available in the magazine. I would include various images the make the magazine look more appealing and also use a more exiting fonts.
