My Final Cover

This is my final front cover. I used this picture because he has a happy expression but it’s not a generic pose with thumbs up. I also liked it because I used the red background which is a good base colour to apply different colours on because of its boldness. I used the name student weekly because it’s self explanatory and simple. The thought bubbles around his head I think will appeal to young people who make up the majority of the audience plus it’s to my knowledge quite unique to this magazine. I tried to include both genders with the headlines thinking that both male and female students would like to win an iPod shuffle and want to know more of what the college has to offer in terms of clubs, this is also good for parents or potential college students who would want to use the magazine as a prospectus. At the bottom I chose to put a picture of a Christmas tree because it’s festive to the season.I chose yellow for my headlines because it’s a good colour on red and still stands out easy enough to read, I tried to make sure my font was clear enough for all ages to read without difficulty so I was very picky about my colour, size and font it’s self.
