School Magazine Analysis



In our magazine cover we used a range of techniques to entice our target audience, which is the students.

We decided to use a female model as it is a typical feature on magazine covers. The model relates to a lot of the readers as it is someone who they should aspire to be like when they are older, especially as we've capture them doing work and learning in school. This helps to promote the school as well, because it gives off a good first impression. This picture also reflects the students as we have used modern technology to enhance the image.

Are master head is called "Southfield News," this is so straight away the audience know what the magazine is about, school. It makes the magazine predictable and they expect new information and up to date news on the school. We used the colour white as it depicts the school colours well.

The cover lines are in red as that is again another school colour. They are short and bold so that the audience can quickly read them and see if they are interested in the news. We decided to pick these specific stories like "Winner of Eco School" and put it in the left third, as we thought that it was the most significant story to this issue of the magazine. It makes the school look eco friendly and shows that we care about the environment, that we are trying to make a difference. This sort of promotion is important to put in our magazine as it is something that parents and students will care about.

The smaller pictures at the bottom are used so that we can include other students and make sure that we are interacting with all the years. One picture is showing a basket ball team. This shows as well that the school have sports team that might encourage other pupils.
