Evaluation of flat plans- front cover


Firstly, i chose to call my magazine 'Speak', the reason i did this was because i think it sums up what the magazine is going to be doing. It it an easy name to remember and it will potentially 'speak out' to the students and the students can have their views and speak to the magazine about them.

I chose to have the photo of a student in the middle, on the front page because the magazine is aimed at all students so thought this would be appropriate. i also included a quote from the student so this could put out their personal view on college.

For the font, i chose a simple font called Georgia. This was because it is easy to read for everyone and looks good in all colours. The language used on the front cover, is short and snappy, to grab people's attention. To decide on what stories i should include on the front cover, i thought about what the students really want to read about. For example, 'Freshers' is in a bold, red font, this encourages students to read that part straight away and hopefully then it'll promote the selling of the tickets for the event.

I made sure i included the vital components including, the issue number and date of the magazine.

The colours used are bright and vibrant, to attract the target audience, it is appealing to the eye and are primary block colours so it doesn't distract too much away from the real content of the magazine.
