The document outlines the selection process for images to be used in a school magazine, emphasizing the relevance of certain images to articles and events. It describes reasons for including images on the cover and contents page to enhance visual appeal and provide context, while also explaining why some images were excluded due to issues like glare and lack of clarity. Overall, the focus is on choosing images that effectively support the magazine's content and engage readers.

1. I’m going to be using this image on the
cover of my school magazine. This is
because it is relevant to an event taking
place in the school, and that’s what
people want to see according to my
survey. I’m going to be using this image
because it is accompanying my
headlining story. I’m also going to be
using this image because it shows what
the headline is about. Another reason
why I’m using this image is because it
gives a visual guide to the article. I’m
also using this image because there’s a
lot to look at in the image which will
make the cover look fuller.

2. I’m going to add this picture to the
contents page of the magazine. I’m
going to add it there so that it will be
next to text directing the reader to the
page with the relevant article. I’m also
adding it to the contents page so that
it can emphasise the point of the
article that it is related to. I’m also
choosing this image because the frame
is rather full and doesn’t leave the eye
wondering around the image.

3. I’m not going to use this image at all
in my magazine because it doesn’t
relate to any of my articles. It also has
a lot of glare which distracts the
audience from the main focus of the
image which is the trees. It also has a
lot of wide open space which will
leave the readers eyes wondering
around the image, looking for more.

4. I’m going to place this image on
the cover of my magazine. This is
because it is relevant to an event
taking place in the school, and
that’s what people want to see
according to my survey. This will
be accompanying the article as a
visual guide. It’s also useful that I
use this image just in case
anyone reading the magazine
doesn’t know where the library
is.

5. I’m going to be using this image
to accompany text on the
contents page. I’m not using it for
the cover page because its article
is not about an event in school
but rather about what is
happening to a certain part of
the school. However I am using
this on the contents page
because it relates very clearly to
what the image is going to be
accompanying.

6. I’m not using this image anywhere in
my magazine. This is because there
is some glare towards the edge of
the image. This is also because the
students in the image are distracting
the viewer from the point of the
image, which is the construction
surrounding the building. Also the
construction around the building
isn’t very clear because of the
extensive brightness at the top of
the image.

7. I’m using this image for the contents page. This is
because it is accompanying a smaller event
taking place in the school. I am using this photo
because it’s very clear and will relate to the small
event happening. I’m also using this image so
that the parents and governors reading the
magazine will know and see where the event is
happening.

8. I’m not using this image at all
in the magazine. I’m not
using it because it’s quite a
gloomy looking picture due
to the grey clouds and lack of
light. Although the building
does relate to a small event
mentioned in the contents
page, the picture doesn’t fit
the brightness of the rest of
the magazine.
