Question 7
The student felt they learned to pay closer attention to details like fonts, color, and layout choices to better suit their target audience and genre. They progressed from a simple, minimal first style to a more fun and exciting house style for a student magazine. Specifically, they learned that bold colors like red make mastheads more memorable, varied font sizes and styles on cover lines make the magazine more exciting, and that a clear structure and line breaks improve readability of the contents page layout. The student also learned to choose high contrast color schemes so important elements like words and mastheads stand out rather than get drowned out.

7
The document discusses what the author has learned in progressing from their preliminary school magazine task to the final music magazine product. Some key lessons learned include styling the masthead and cover story text in a bolder, clearer way to attract the target audience, using boxes and thinner text on substories to make them more sophisticated, employing free downloads to appeal to an older audience, choosing background images that fit the mood, organizing columns and spacing photos effectively on the contents page, and using double page spreads with bold top text and boxes around subtext to make elements stand out. The author feels they have improved in applying these design lessons across the final magazine.
P&R
The document discusses planning and research for a school magazine cover, including basic photoshop skills practiced by editing an image with color effects, magazine comparisons noting font and layout styles, and a magazine cover plan outlining a photo shoot and mock-up design. Photoshop was used to enhance an image by blurring the background and highlighting features. Two magazine covers were compared, noting one used bold colors, fonts, and images effectively while the other lacked visual appeal. A cover plan and mock-up were created, selecting a model, location, and editing the photo with blur effects before adding the magazine title and descriptive text boxes.
Transition project
The magazine front cover aims to attract young readers interested in sports. It uses a simple sans-serif font that is easy to read, along with ample white space and a large celebrity image of Theo Walcott to draw the eye. The title stands out in bright orange to catch attention, while other text is kept in easy-to-read white against the background. The informal tone and straightforward language make the content accessible to its target audience. Overall, the design utilizes conventional magazine elements to effectively promote the magazine's focus on sports to younger readers.
Creating your own school magazine
This document provides instructions for students to create their own school magazine as a class project. Students must work in pairs to design the front cover and contents page. They must include an original cover photo of a student that they have manipulated, as well as a masthead and mock layout of the contents page.

The logo shows it focuses on one school. The layout is designed to neatly represent the magazine and draw readers in with limited text and use of fonts and colors.
Preliminary task
This document provides guidance on designing the cover of a school magazine. It recommends including key elements like the school name and date, a main cover image, and teasers for inside articles. Pictures are important to engage readers and show school activities. Fonts and layout should stand out and guide the eye around the cover. The target audience is parents and prospective students, so the design needs excitement while appealing to adults. Overall this cover design advice focuses on clarity, visual interest, and audience needs.
As media
The document analyzes the cover of an existing school magazine. It discusses the fonts, layout, image, mode of address, and conventions used on the cover. The fonts are all serif for readability.

The document analyzes and summarizes several magazine covers:
1) The first magazine cover uses a black and white theme with subtle pops of color. It draws attention to important text with varying shades of white. The side-view model photo allows for surrounding text.
2) The second magazine employs a black and white theme and larger bold text to draw attention. It features a close-up photo of a model's face to focus on facial structure.
3) The third magazine incorporates a black and white theme with a colorful element in the corner. Its masthead draws attention with the word "photographer" and a side-profile model photo shows facial features.
Researchfmpcopy 190611085118
Here are my observations from the primary audience research:
- The target audience prefers magazine covers that are attention-grabbing but not overly cluttered. They want something sophisticated but still interesting visually.
- The main image or "center piece", typically featuring a model, is considered the most important element. The cover design should highlight this central visual.
- A generic layout with the main image as the clear focal point is preferred. Additional text and design elements should complement rather than compete with the central photo or illustration.
- High production values and professional design are important. The audience wants the magazine to look polished and well-put together.
To appeal to this audience, I will focus my cover design on a strong
Media school mag analysis
The document provides a critique of the design elements used in creating a school magazine, including the masthead, cover photo, puffs, plugs, and contents page. The masthead font could have been bolder to catch readers' attention. The cover photo subject could have been shot from closer to fill more space. Puffs and plugs need more prominent placement and variety of social media links. The background color and text styles throughout are too plain and do not entice readers. Images on the contents page lack excitement and fill potential white space. Overall, more variation is needed in design elements to make the magazine more interesting and appealing to readers.
School Magazine Evaluation
The document provides feedback on different elements of a school magazine cover and contents page. For the masthead, it notes the basic font does not attract all readers and could include more exciting words. The plugs use the same font and color, so stories seem similar and less engaging. No puff was included, making the magazine seem tedious. The cover photo shows a smiling student but cutting could be improved. The style is childish but lacks appeal compared to best sellers due to little content and an ugly background color. The headline is straightforward but basic. Content page images positively portray the school but information is brief and uninteresting.
Magazine analysis
The document analyzes a magazine front cover and contents page created by the author. Some key points:
- The author used Photoshop to design the bright pink masthead and arrange the cover elements.
- The cover lines highlight important articles in colored boxes, and the lead image shows a surprised model.
- The contents page matches the front cover colors and styles articles sections with photos chosen by the author.
- The author notes what design elements worked well (bright colors, lead image) and not as well (cover lines, contents photos) and what was difficult (article ideas) versus easy (assembling in Photoshop).
Preliminary task

The student was also pleased with how the contents photos looked and how they connected to the stories. Aspects that could be improved included moving the cover photo down slightly so the title was more visible, and making the subtitle on the cover easier to read. The contents page could also be improved by changing the grey triangles and reducing blank space.
Question 7
The student learned several important lessons when progressing from their preliminary school magazine to the final product. For the cover, they improved the masthead size and placement, used the cover photo more effectively, and chose shots and outfits more relevant to the magazine's demographic.

School magazine comparison
- 3. This is the magazine I made in Photoshop. I took photos of my friend Sara. I made her hold a folder so that it would be more realistic for school . I added a couple of sub headings relevant to school. Later on I decided that this magazine was very boring and uninteresting, and I think it wouldn’t attract students, So I decided to redo it and make it really funky and eye catchy.
- 4. This is my new school magazine cover, it is a lot more interesting and vibrant. It would also attract a lot more students.
