Front page

This is my finished Front page. I have changed many thing on this page.  The first thing I've changed is the picture. I changed this picture because the last picture didn't look good. The girl who I used wasn't smiling and this would make people not pick it up. It looked like she didn't like college so changed it. Another thing I've changed is having boxes down the side with writing in it. I've done this because it's clear and you can see the writing, therefore people can see whats in the magazine and hopefully thy would pick it up. I've put the writing color in yellow as this is a bright color and you can see this, it grabs people attention. I've changed the color of the masthead as it didn't stand out and this is important for your masthead to stand out as this is what people look for first. I really like this Front page due and hope that if it was out in a college that people would pick it up and read it. 

Content Page

This is my final piece for my contents Page. I have changed my contents page as I just put the stories in random order and didn't think about it. I've changed this and it looks much better. I also changed where my competition went. On Page 3 the contents would normal  go and I didn't think of this so therefore it need changed. Another thing i changed was the wording. The wording didn't grab peoples attention so I also changed it and now I think it grabs peoples attention more, therefore hopefully they would pick up this magazine and read it.  I like my contents page as it bright (blue) catches people's eye so therefore I think people will read it. I have Separated my information into boxes to make it easier to read. I have put the biggest story which is about the famous student on the middle pages as this is where most people see first. I have then put the worst stories at the front and back as people see these last. I put the rest off the pages I thought would been seen first and the most interesting stories closer to the middle page. My contents page is aimed at college students. The age range is for students over 16 who have left school.

my contents page

This is my contents page, I think I have finished it but need to see what other people think. It's bright attracts people attention so therefore i think it works well. My audience is all  College students. The age range is for people over 16+.  In my contents page I have picked things to write about which I think people will be interested in.  I have put the masthead at a different red so people see this first before they look t the sub headings. I think is is important as people will know what the page is about before reading it.

front page

I still need to finish this but all I need to do is change the photo as the girl isn't smiling and put more writing on it. I like this front cover page as it is bright so stands out. The "free" sign attracts people attention as it is in yellow which is a bright color and it is "free" so people will pick it up. The writing in the bottom corner i really like as it looks like a piece of writing which is someones work. The mast head it big bright and attracts people. Overall I think this contents page is good therefore I will be using it. My audience for my magazine is for students who are at college. Age ranging form 16+. 

Contents page changed

This is my contents page so far, I haven't finished it yet. I need to finish the writing. I like this page as I have broke it up in to sections so it is easier for people to read. Another reason why I like it is because the background is blue and this is a bright color and grabs peoples attention. I haven't put all the page numbers in order as if you see in a magazine which is already made they don't have the page number in order. This is so adverts can go in and you don't show the adverts on the contents page.

New front page

I changed my idea for my front page as I didn't like the other one as it was too plain. It need a background as this is what attracts peoples attention first. I think this one looks better as it has more color in it. I also changed what i wrote as the other one no one would want it as it doesn't attract your attention. This one tell you what can be won and attracts the reader more.  I am going to change this more to make it look better.

Magazine for college, Idea

This is my first idea of how I want my magazine for the college.

Good and bad angle view.

These are good and bad camera angle views.

Good contents page

I really like this contents page it is bright, has pictures and the information is put into groups. The person who has done this contents page has put a lot of effort into it and thought about it(planned) it before doing it. This makes a lot of difference. I really like how this person has categorized there information instead of it been all messy and scattered around the page. They have there pages number big and bold and this is clear, so will help people. This page also leaves page number out for the adverts to be placed in but the adverts are never listed on the contents page. This contents page has one main picture and 2 small pictures. This makes the contents page look bright and will stand out. I really like the masthead on this it isn't boring writing it is funky writing and this grab my attention straight away. I got a lot of ideas from this page and will be using someone them when I do my own contents page.

Bad contents page

 

This contents page is very boring and not one I would pick. This contents page has no colour in it. I think it is important to have colour in it as it is one main feature that attracts people. This contents page also doesn't have any photos on it. This is also a main feature and this page is lacking in it. I think this page has been rushed and not a lot of thought has been put in to it. This is a bad example and I will not be getting ideas from it.  The masthead in this page is  very boring although it is in a bright colour(red). The only thing I like about this page is how they haven't put all the page numbers in order. This is so that they can have they adverts on these pages.

Leona Lewis

 


















I really like this photo of Leona Lewis. She is pretty and this stands out in this photo. She is looking straight at the camera. This is a close up of her. She isn't smiling very much and I don't think she has been told to pose.  Having dark colors (browns, black, greens) in the picture makes people focus on Leona Lewis more and not the background. This photo is very sharp and clear of what's going on in the picture.  I  really like this photo and would like to us it in my magazine.

Beyonce





 

 

 

 

 

 

I really like this photo, its a natural picture of Beyoncé. This photo is a shoulder length picture. She is looking right at the camera and this makes her face stand out more. she hasn't got her hair covering her face and I think this  makes her face stand out more. Beyoncé is posing a little bit but I think it works well. I'd like to us this picture on my magazine. 

 

 

 

Magazine cover

This magazine cover is like the other one I posted.The colours are the same, pinks,purples, blacks ect. If you look at both the magazines the header is in the same place. In this magazine they have a white background. They have this so the main picture grabs your attention quicker.  In all of top of the pops magazine there have one pretty girl. The magazine is aimed at the same reader. One of the reason why I like this front cover page is because of the header. The header is big, bold, bright and is in the middle of the page. This header grab my attection straight away along with the main picture.
