Preliminary Task: My first magazine attempt


This is my first attempt of my magazine cover, I used a temporary image until I take my own photos. This shows all the colours, fonts, sizes and articles I experimented with. I did plan on using Bauhaus 93 as the font, however this is a lot less readable there fore I used a much simpler text for the rest of my page. I tried using the colour dropper to co-ordinate colours and using a reduced palette. I felt that some of my articles fade into the background slightly and don't stand out enough - articles such as 'You may think they're months away but we've got 10 top tips to passing your A-Levels' I also thing my articles also need to be more literally catching such as 'amazing a-levels'. I also slightly edited my mast head by rotating the 'SDC' part round, I think this fills my page better and makes it sightly more interesting to look at. On my next attempt I hope to use the capital lettering instead of the articles being in lowercase. I also plan to find co-ordinating colours to go with my photo. However I like the lay out of my magazine and hope to keep that the same.
