Final Preliminary

Final Front Cover

I am very pleased with my magazine cover, i think it looks professional, well set-out and i really like the text font and style. However, i do think i have made the overall look of the cover too girly and only appealing to girls. It is suppost to be an all-girls school but this magazine will be sent to parents aswell. To improve the cover i would change the colour scheme and add less girly colours like yellows and greens for example. I would also change the badge to something that makes more of a statement instead of just a love-heart with the school name inside. Also i would have a photo of a student with more of a convincing smile to convey the sense of achievment and happiness.

Final Mock-Up Contents Page

I decided to include the same colour scheme displayed on the front cover to make it look like the same magazine. I think it is a simple layout but obviously including photos and font it would look aesthetically pleasing. When constructing the Main task contents page i want it to look very overloaded with different fonts, colours and images but i want them to all to look co-ordinated and not messy otherwise it will look less effective.
