This magazine cover analysis summarizes two college magazine covers. The first magazine cover uses a sky blue masthead and logo with the strapline "High Quality Learning for All" printed below. It features two smiling girls in bright dresses. The second magazine cover uses a dark purple background with a messy, handwritten masthead that suggests a focus on the school. However, several key details on both covers like dates, cover lines, and fonts are too small and unclear, making the magazines look unprofessional. Overall, the analysis examines design elements like colors, images, and text placement on the covers.
