Evaluation of School Magazine and Contents

I decided to name the magazine 'Miss Study' as it was one of the suggestions I had from my survey which I really liked because my school is an all girls school. I chose the font for my masthead as it reminded of the fonts used for schools conventionally in the media, especially in America. As the background was both dark and light I placed coloured boxes under the coverlines so that they were easy to read and so that they stood out, in addition to this, to break up the normal coverlines I placed some of the coverlines in shapes so that they drew attention to those coverlines. The main coverline I put in a diagonally placed rectangle with the font in bold so that it was clear it was the main coverline. My background I thought was appropriate as it is a picture of a student studying who looks smart which reflects the school in a good light, I used an image of a student as in my survey the overall feedback was that students wanted a picture of another student on the cover. I chose a colour scheme of blue and purple as blue is one of our school colours and purple made it a bit more feminine without being over powering. For the contents page I used the same font for the page title that I used for my masthead to carry on a theme. I also carried on using a blue and purple colour scheme so there is an element of continuity in the magazine. I used one main image here but i think if i were to do it again I would include more images and make the editors letter a bit smaller. I arranged the different pages into three sections so the reader can find the articles they are interested in more easily. Overall I think my front cover looks quite professional however if I was going to improve it I would maybe use different fonts and a brighter image which catches the attention of the audience and my contents could possibly have more images and a font that is a bit easier to read than the one I chose here.
