I have learnt a lot and one main thing is how to use Photoshop to produce the magazine.
I mainly used Photoshop to produce this magazine.
I have used all the conventions. Language is used by the focal point of the cover image, ideology is the plain white background i have used as it was plain and simple and would help express the writing, institution is shown as it is a college magazine and is shown by the books/folders being help with the typical college boy with the lovely glasses as the main image of the front cover and the audience is clearly shown for college students and finally the representation is the college themed magazine.
I would make the writing more clear for the other headlines and the title and put it mainly all on one line for the main heading.
The reason for why i have chosen these ideas for my front cover is because they show a typical college student, with the plain background and some books/folders to show the work that is made during college hours, i have also added the student using some earphones as sometime you normally see the college students walking around.
Ideas:
- School
- College
- Field
- Gym
- Theater
- Music Classroom
- Recording Studio
- Canteen
- Library
- Science Lab
- Subject Classrooms e.g. Maths, English
- Playground
- Books
- Folders
- Stationary
- Science Equipment
- Music Instrument
- Music Head-phones
- Sports Equipment e.g. Football, Rugby ball, Rackets
- Camera (photography)
The reason why i have picked these for my mood board is because these are the main things that the younger generation and teens are into. This is because they are very up to date and have different meanings for different people. It could be hobbies for some and an interest for others etc.
