Priliminary 6th formn magazine, finalisation

My prelimary 6ht form magazine finalisations.




·         Image – Mid shot of a few girls socialising and laughing. Outside in the sunshine, use of natural light, with a part of the school building in the background.
·         Colour – blue, grey and pink. The blue and pink are stereotypical male and female colour and the grey creates a cool look in addition to working well with the blue & pink. They are all light colours.
·         Fonts – century gothic looks a little like handwriting.
·         Graphics – school logo to represent the school as well as enhancing the fact that it’s a school 6th form magazine.
·         Mode of address – really friendly and chatty but at the same time very informative and detailed.
·         Representation – happy, friendly groups of students attending the 6th form. Enjoying themselves and hardworking but still able to have a social life.


Headlines
·        Socialise in sixth form!!!
·        6th forms fun friendly learning informer!
Puffs
·        Physic Students! ( agony aunts)
·        100 of the BEST! Revision tips
·        Be a WINNER!!! – Revise 4 summer!


Justification
My target audience particularly like the ideas of the font I chose because they agreed with me that it is fun and gives off a formal yet informal writing style. They agreed it did look like typical teenage girl handwriting as it’s not joined; it’s simple, easy to read and neat. They agreed the logo needs to be the Ashcroft logo, as it is a school 6th form magazine, considering the school is Ashcroft, the choice of logo works well and it agrees with the colour scheme of blue, pink & grey. I would have to lighten the logo a bit so it works better with the colour scheme, other than that its perfect.  As the magazine is more social then academic, the image of the girls laughing and relaxing will enhance the whole social theme instead of representing one thing and the magazine itself represents another.
