Magazine Front Cover Planning

For my Preliminary Media AS  work I have to produce a college magazine. In order to do this I need:

  • A magazine name
  • Featured and regular articles
  • Personally taken photographs (Models and location) at medium close-up
My ideas for the main image are either a sports student in the gym or a student working on a desk in a classroom. I will be taking the photos during my own time and study periods so that I can produce my final magazine front cover in class. 


To the left is a lay out of how I would like my final piece to look. I am hoping to have at least 2 or 3 thumbnails, plus approximately 6 featured articles, a masthead, skyline and a main image. All of these being conventions of a magazine. In order to separate my magazine from others I will choose different USP's and articles to include in order to appeal to my target audience (16 - 18 year old students, male and female). 

As I am using Wyke as my college for this magazine I have decided to keep to the colour scheme of the college. This means I will be using the following colours:
Dark Purple (#5C3F8A)
Lime Green (#ACD137)
Dark Green (#2E7206)
Light Grey (#BDAD8F)
White
