The document summarizes the design choices made for a magazine cover and contents page. The designer used the college's red and blue colors to associate the magazine with the institution. Images on the cover and contents page featured people engaged in art to fit the theme of the "art issue." The cover additionally included a student concentrating on work to portray the college as productive and a line about exam stress to attract a wider audience.

2. I tried to keep a consistent style with the front cover and the contents page by using the same font and the same colour scheme. I used the colours red and blur because these are the city college colours and so people would immediately associate the magazine with the college. Because this issue was an ‘art issue’ I used images of people standing in from of their art, but also other images of people having fun and learning.

3. For the front cover I used an image of one person concentrating on their work, this was to show that city college is a good work environment. Because this was the ‘art issue’ the person is doing art work, in an art room, with paintings in the background. I also used a flowery decorative font for the words ‘the art issue’ to tie in with the magazines content. However one of the cover lines (stop exam stress) is there to show that the magazine is still about other issues in the college, so people who do not do art would still be interested in reading it.
