School Magazine Finalized Front Page

I decided to use this particular layout  as I wanted the magazine to appeal to the age group it is aimed at which is an audience between the ages of 16-18. I thought about the types of magazines most sixth formers are usually attracted to and looked at a layout of a particular 'Heat' magazine which is well known amongst this age group. I looked at 'Heat's magazine cover as an inspiration to attract readers as gossip magazines were the most  popular genre of magazine according to my questionnaire results and attract a variety of readers including the age group I am aiming my magazine at. I used conventions of other school magazines to help me decide what features I should include in mine.
I used a variety of fonts to make my front cover seem more appealing and used enough bright  colours to make it more attractive and eye-catching.

Questionnaire And Results


20 of these questionnaires were handed out to various sixth-formers. I asked particular questions in order to help me to create my own type of magazine.
