Cover Page
The cover page is eye catching mainly because of the pose of the model. It is not very wild or crazy as this magazine is for a school and aims to look professional. The model is dressed in smart clothes giving a clue that is is more targeted towards more the older audience e.g. parents of students.
The model in the image is a sixth former running for the position of head boy. this can give an idea of what the contents of the magazine will be about.
There is information on the outside of the photo on either side of the page. these give the reader some idea of what is inside that issue of the magazine and whether it will appeal to them or not.
The colours on the page are repetitive, highlighting the more important key words or bits of information in yellow. The colour of the writing is constantly blue and yellow because this is the colour of the schools logo. Contrasted with the background of bricks and the plain navy jumper of the model these bits of information stand out.
Contents Page
We can tell it is a contents page because it has a title near the top which is very bold so is extremely eye catching. it again contrasts the background so that is is even more eye catching.The articles listed in the contents page are divided in to sections with the page numbers and the subject title. The title is bolder and bigger than the subtext so it stands out more as it is the title of that page.
The colours used on the contents page are very neutral. This gives a modern and fresh feel to the magazine. it also gives a professional look as it is not faffing around with stupid colours like pink and purple. The contents page is very eye catching because of the two bold colours I used for the
background and the writing. These are both neutral colours but contrast each other in every aspect.
