Magazine Brief

My magazine cover will be for Wyke College students only informing them on all the necassary information such as how the sports teams are doing like basketball, football, rugby, netball etc. Other peices of information will also be important such as interviewing the PE department on how the teams are doing, about the lessons of Wyke and how they are tought and if the students enjoy the teacher's style of teaching. Attendance is another key point in the magazine, in my opinion, because it shows that the college work together and shows that people want to learn and have funin the subjects hey have chosen.

For my magazine cover I am going to be consistent with my colour scheme so the magazine itself looks more professional and more people from the college will want to buy it. There will be a big bold masthead, with a dominant icon on the cover of the magazine which will stand out so the students know 1)what the actual magazine is called and 2)So people will see the icon and know it is Wyke College's magazine. It will be a reasonably priced magazine so more students can buy it with no money worries. I thought that if students have NUS cards then they can get half price on the magazine which will definately influence sales in the best possible way. My target audience will be for the people aged around 16-19 years because that is the age range of the students at Wyke.

My contents page will include different things to go into the magazine such as the rules of the college, i.e. no smoking around the site, it will include students being interviewed about the teachers and if they enjoy learning at the college.

Coventions of a Music Magazine

This is a simple magazine cover but it is easy to read, consistant in its colour scheme. The masthead is easy to remember seeing as it is a college magazine, also the masthead is in big, bold red writing to make it stand out more and go with the red t-shirt the girl in the centre is wearing. The text in this magazine cover is in Blue and black and so is the barcode, this shows consistency in the magazine which shows that it is professionally done. The main image is a medium long shot to show the readers of this magaine that the pupils at the college are mainly happy and friendly people. The girl in the centre of the cover has many different texts around her, this shows that she is the centre of attention.
