This is my preliminary task magazine front cover. For the background i used a red to stick with the School colours i decided to make the colour change from lighter to darker reds so that it made it look more interesting rather than one solid colour. I then used gold for the masthead which is the same colour as the St Marks logo to make it recognisable. As i did my magazine for the sixth form i decided to add this in black so that it looked more interesting. As this is the first St Marks magazine i also included this so that it looked more professional. I decided to use the medium close up shot on the front and put a quote from the student about what they like about the sixth form, this is so that people can find out what students do actually think of the sixth form. I also included the St Marks sign at the front of school so that friends and family of the student would recognise it, if they ever drove past the school. As this magazine is for Students i also included a star with "Find out about new clubs!" as students might not realise that there is opportunity's for them to get involved. I also used a profile shot on the front page but i changed it into a circle so that students know that there is access to computers in the school so they can complete there work. I decided to use 3 small photos as people can start to recognise students from the sixth form. Using the logo also meant that people knew it was specifically for the School rather than just a magazine for everyone.
