This is the cover of my college magazine and contents page.

I put the more important words in the bold white writing so that they stand out and draw people's attention to the headings. My target demographic for this magazine is students aged 16-19. It is aimed at a male and female audience as the colours are quite neutral and the articles on the front cover and in the contents are mixed. For example i have included sport news, which is stereotypically male news, and Hair the college musical, which is stereotypically more female news inside. It also contains articles based on college life such as Enrichment, trips, Prior's got Talent and Children in Need week. It also includes a questionnaire to find out what students like and dislike about college life.
I used a variety of conventions in my magazine. The masthead is big and is the main focus of the front cover. It takes up the majority of the top of the page and, besides the picture is the biggest feature on there. The barcode at the bottom also contains the issue number. The captions on my cover such as "who won what?" are smaller than their headings and in one font rather than varying.
