my final front cover

 

   i changed my whole design form my  original front cover to this on account of   this looks more appealing to me than my last front cover.  Producing a magazine for people in my age group i need to ensure that it is appealking to  me if i was someone who was lookign to read this would it apeal to me either threw written or image illustrations  which would make me want to read on.
 for my background on my magazine i used red but in various shades  so that  the cover looks different and original. i used a gradient background where i can place the shape that i want t he shading to go  so it is aliened with one another.  even though there are many shades of  red on the background the red comes from  the  darkened red of the school. The red stands out and is very appealing to look at.

For the written illustrations i have used black Franklyn Gothic writing because it colour coordinates with the  red background. hover i have used red for the writing that is over the really light white reddish background so that the writing stand out. the red and black stand out over the  different shades of red an a light mixture of red and white. i have placed ST. MARKS  on the left vertical of the cover which stands out considering that the light red blends in with the red mixed with white. i personally thought that the magazine would look better and more appealing  if there was  the same mixtures of colours. my three basic colours that i decided to use for the cover was black for most of the writing, red for bits of the writing that were over the white section of the cover an d the white used to blend in the black and the red so it stands out even more.

 the date of  issue is 2nd February and the number of issue is 12.  this is the day that the magazine as published. underneath the date of issue  there is eh selling line which  is a couple of words that explain exactly what the magazine is about.  my selling is  RELIEF YOURSELF OF ALL THE SCHOOL STRESS i choose  this on account of it emphasises that the magazine  is ambiguous. it has many meanings to it. it could mean that there are many tips within the magazine that can relief that stress that school may have  upon one or that it is an easy relaxations that eases  ones mind from the usual stress.

 i used various cover lines of things that will be within the magazine such as how to deal with teenage problems, find out what type of personalty you have, advice and tips for sixth form .i choose  these cover lines on account of it represents the issues that  students mainly  face in lower and upper sixth form such things  as personalty changes, stress for exams and catching up with  assignments  and the occasionally social problems that  students  may have which is  hwy i have placed them as the main coverlines on the  front cover because they highlight these main issue of students and instantly students can relate to the magazine when  they see the cover lines on the front cover.

 the magazine suits its  tare audience on account of it  appeals to its audience with  relating to  issues that students face when  they have reached the stages of lower and upper sixth form .Also it is colourful bright and eye catching. the big bold Franklyn Gothic writing stands out  with the mixture of  the red background.
