contents page analysis

my contents page however getting all the nessisary information is aestheticly un atractive with the basic information, if i was given a longer period of time i could adapt the layout ect to become better looking and also getting in the needed information.

front cover analysis

I am happy the way that the front cover has turned out because:
first of all i named my magazine in sport because i am a huge sports enthusiast and enjoy sport also as the Sussex downs college has a huge variety of sports of offer there is plenty of information to write about. however i would have liked a name that was more catchy and easier to remember.
also i am happy with the picture that i have chosen because it includes the rugby posts in the background which incorporates the theme of sport and rugby at the college. in the process of getting the picture i discarded the ones that are inappropriate


i have now finished my contents page.


i have now finished my front cover.

Step One

I have now completed my flat plan of my magazine and will scan it into the computer as one of my next steps. On the flat plan there is the front cover page where i have named my magazine In Sport, the magazine would be about the sporting activities at the college. As the magazine is about sport and that the college has an extremely good rugby team on my front cover i have included the medium - close up required but also Incorporated in he background rugby posts.
Also on my flat plan i have created my contense page including what would be written in the magazine and have Incorporated the headlines on the front cover.
when i was deciding on the photo to place on the front cover i had to discard the inappropriate ones where the eyes of the person in the picture were closed etc.
