        Prelim Task




Lorna Holland
Prelim OFC




My prelim        Existing school
task OFC         magazine OFCs
What conventions did I use?
 I used a font called “Segoe Script” because it looks as though it has been
 handwritten; reflecting the school context the magazine would be in.

 When I edited the image using Photoshop I made it brighter as during my research
 I discovered that cover images tend to be bright as this looks positive and appeals
 to the young target audience more.

 I ensured the colour scheme of the annotations added over the original photo is
 red, white and black which are our schools colours, therefore linking the school
 with the magazine. It also ties in as most of the magazines I have researched have
 a select limited colour palette in order to keep it simple yet official looking - I
 decided to do the same thing within my prelim.

 I made the schools logo and the masthead quite large and dominant compared to
 the rest of the image as I found that they are usually quite central and key to the
 image in existing texts; this is so readers can easily identify the magazine using
 either its name or the familiar icon of their school logo.
Prelim Contents Page




  My prelim      Existing school
task contents   magazine contents
    page              pages
What conventions did I use?

 Similarly to the other contents pages I’ve analysed, my contents page continues
 with the same housestyle (most noticably colour scheme and font) as is present in
 my OFC. This links the two pages together ensuring they look similar to each other
 so it is obvious that they belong to the same magazine.

 I have also used several images, and as you can see the existing contents pages
 also use a large amount of images to keep the reader interested through the
 graphology and they also portray a positive representation of the school.

 Another convention is that the images used on the contents pages normally include
 the logo of the school and photographs that either add to the article titles or are
 of the school in general. From my research I have found that this almost acts as
 an advertisement for the school, representing it in a positive light to both students
 and others reading the magazine.
