The document summarizes and analyzes the front and contents pages of a sixth form magazine. For the front cover, it notes that the model is smiling, intended to portray the sixth form as a happy place, and the purple background suggests ambition while still appearing professional. The model's posture aims to imply an informal atmosphere. For the contents page, it states that the design lacks consistency with different colors and fonts between pages. While aesthetically pleasing, the layout is not practical as the numbers and text angles make it difficult to read from left to right. The placement of condensed text in the middle leaves empty space and no story stands out to catch a reader's eye.

2. Front Cover
The model is not using direct
mode of address.
The model is
smiling/laughing
which makes it
appear that the sixth
form is a happy and
fun place to be
Whilst the background is
purple which has
connotations of ambition
and power, it is a pale
shade which appears
professional and not
childish. Ambition and
becoming an adult are two
things important in sixth
form.
Her posture appears
informal and laid back, this
gives the impression that
this is what the
atmosphere of the sixth
form is like
The models face is placed
in a way which complies
with the rule of thirds. The
models face and
expression become a focal
point due to their
positioning.

3. Contents Page
The magazine does not have
a very strong house style,
the colours and font used
are different in the contents
and on the front page
Whilst the graphic
design is aesthetically
pleasing, the layout is
not functional or
practical, as the
numbers are in a
random order and the
text is at various angles.
The placement of the
text makes it difficult to
read and follow as
naturally we read left to
right, top to bottom.
The content of the page is
concentrated in the
middle/bottom leaving
negative space surrounding
which looks out of place
and as if there is content
missing from the page
The titles of stories are
also very small so are
unlikely to catch the eye
of a reader, no story
particularly jumps out to
a reader or looks
particularly interesting.
The only real difference
between the summary
and title is that the title
is in caps.
