First Task:


The first task we had to complete was to produce a school magazine front cover and contents page.

 

 

Before starting the task, myself and three other people (Jordan, Alex, and Josh) went around the school to take pictures of the architecture, pupils and teachers enjoying the facilities and of them using them too. The colour scheme i chose was coral pink-red, bright yellow and navy blue which came from the Heworth Grange logo in the top left corner  . i used the school logo to show its the schools magazine. A lot of the text on the front cover and picture differ in size because in order to the quotes and images to stand out they shouldn't be the same size and font/colour. I have seen this occur in a lot of other magazines too. Using sub headings give the general characteristics of a magazine as they show what stories will feature in the magazine and the social logos at the far bottom right indicate its available online too. I used these logos due to the high demand of more online magazines as its easier going online for news instead of physically going and picking up a copy of a magazine.

 

 

 

 

For the contents page i still used the bright yellow and navy theme from the school logo and Incorporated it into the background surrounding the text and pictures. These colours are easy to see, they stand out and make the images on the contents page look good. As this is my first project in A level media, it is not my best work. With the mistakes i have made - With the colour schemes, positioning of the text and images, i can use these mistakes to improve my future work.
