Analysis of draft school cover

      MASTHEAD

I called the masthead 'Free lesson' due to the chance that it would be read during a free lesson but also it could be used to teach one or two thing, hence a 'free lesson'. The logo besides it is the King Henry VIII School Logo and so i used that to represent that it is specifically King Henry's School magazine and not a random one. The F of the masthead is red so that if it was an actual magazine, that would be that standing out feature so it would catch eyes,underneath the logo is the motto of the magazine

PUG                

With my Pug I tired to imitate the style of the pug of the example Q magazine give to us,which in their pug had an interview and so with my pug I did a similar thing with the pug horizontal to the masthead and inside details about a fake interview with the headteacher, the colour red was chosen to also catch a readers eyes similarly to the masthead

SELL LINES

 The sell lines that i came up with were just to fill the magazine and leave no empty space but they weren't entirely random as I tired to imitate again what magazine sell lines would be like and so they were full of reader bait,so that were things that would interest people to read the entire magazine and buy it rather than reading the front cover and putting it back on the shelf such as 'trips revealed' and a top ten list along with a possible bout between teacher to stir up interest.

                     Splash and Main Image

 With the splash, I decided to make it entirely out of capital letters to add emphasis that this was the main story of the newspaper,the main image behind the splash is a back of a head to make the read wonder who it is and go straight to the main article if they cant see the face,intending to be a new captain of the school rugby team,talked about on the splash,the image is a medium close-up as that is what is used by magazine if the main image features only one person.

                   

  Entire Cover

    
 With the colour scheme for my draft school magazine,I went with the basic yellow, black and red as with them combine all stand out individually rather than one standing out over the others,the entire cover isn't coloured due to the fact that i didn't want to cover up any of the writing and so that is why there is white boxes around some of writing by the masthead and logo
