Analyzing other school magazine front covers (successful)

successful magazine cover

Mast head straight across top of the page in the largest font size, this makes it clear that it is the title.

Simple font maintained across the front page, makes it professional, varied colours and some words are written in bold to make some cover lines and anchorage text more important than other text.

Pale colour scheme, all colours complement each other to make the magazine professional.

Anchorage text highlighted to make it more important and catch the readers eye to entice them to buy it, highlighted effect makes the magazine look like a school related magazine.

Main image is central with text fitted around image framing the photo making it draw the reader in, also the girl is looking into the camera lens, which gives the effect she is looking at the viewer, again drawing them into the magazine.

White background makes all the text and image stand out, makes the front page look organised and easier to read.
