Front cover of my college magazine




FRONT COVER OF MY COLLEGE MAGAZINE

Using my plan of the front cover in my previous post, i have created a full front cover. I am very please with this as i think it looks like something that you could get a college. My title is  in the font 'Chalkduster' I thought this would be a good font to use as it represents the chalk a teacher would use on a old fashion blackboard which resembles to learning. 
     
With the colour side of things I haven't been religious to the colours i have chosen because I think that using an array of bright colours on a magazine will intrigue the target audience.

My Main image is of a girl looking happy, relaxed and casual. I took this photo like this because i didn't want to photo to look staged and 'fake.' 

I think my puffs and plugs work well because I have used different shapes, e.g stars, circles and rectangles. This creates a different dynamic and dimensions to the cover. These are the things that will catch the audiences eye.

Things i could improve:
i feel that maybe a colour scheme could work better to make the cover have more unity. Also i feel my main cover line 'Student president announced!' could be bolder and more prominent then the rest of the magazine, having its own box for example.
