My masthead is the same as the Plumstead Manor Website as it is aimed as Sixth form students, also as it carry’s on the house style from the website and letters, my masthead has the school name as well as the magazine name so it. One of the bad things is that my Magazine name is too faint so it is hard to notice, so I will change this when we make our final product. I changed the colour to red as in my survey they wanted to see the red alongside other colours, they said they would like to see this colour as it is eye catching, and it draws them towards the magazine. I will use this masthead throughout my magazine where it is needed I.E the contents page.

I have used three different images on my front cover; I used a long shot image of the Sixth form building, I used this image as it relates to my target audience who are 16-18 years old, sixth form students. This image will appeal to my audience and other students, as it is a new building and it is modern looking, I made the building the optical view as it stands out and will attract their attention. I have also used a picture of a student doing her work in the sixth form building, she is smiling which she’s happy and gives a positive message. In my third picture I have a picture of two students talking and smiling this shows they are having a good time and they are enjoying their time. The first thing a reader will look at is my medium close up of the one student as they then get interested about why they’re there, also it is in the optical center.

This is my optical view of the building as this is the sixth form building and it relates to them, I have changed the contrast and

brightness, as it was dull before.

In this picture you can see some of the resources the sixth form provides, table tennis. This shows what students can do during their

break and lunch times.

This is my medium close up of the student, in background you can see the equipment that is available for students

to use whenever they need.

In this picture you can see students have their own space to relax or do revision during

their free periods.
