St Marys College Magazine

I have chosen to design a magazine for my college. I have used a student from the college to be the main image of the magazine. The student has been photographed to look out the magazine, this is using direct mode of address to capture the audiences attention. I have used bright lighting in the image to make the the student stand out of the magazine.I have chosen to anchor the text, "Big Penny Does It Again". I have placed used this text because it is the main subject of the magazine. Also it makes the reader want to find out what is featured in the magazine because the text doesn't reveal what the article is about. I have also used the college logo, so that the audience can instantly recognise the magazine as a college magazine. I have chosen the colours red and yellow as the theme as the magazine because yellow and red are two of the colours that represent the college. As you can see the magazine  is very basic. If I was to remake the magazine I would include more features: Strap line, website address and many other features to make my magazine look more professional.
