College Magazine Annotations

These are two school magazines that I annotated, for my college magazine.

-Logo, to represent the college

-Direct mode of address- eye contact,

helps them feel part of the magazine,

also helps catch the readers attention.

-Over lapping text over image

-Cover Lines, this gives a description of

what’s involved in the magazine

and what to expect.

-Strapline, in yellow, to try to get the words across.

-Three main colours; white, yellow and blue,

makes it look more organised.

-Big, bold masthead which immediately attracts the readers attention and draws them in.

-The magazine cover is very organised and all of the house styles of the magazine are matching which gives the front cover a sophisticated look.

-Girl jumping on trampoline

-The main character on the magazine has been represented by jumping on the trampoline, this shows a good and consistent sports college.

-Long shot picture, the setting takes up most of the frame

-Pupils in the background

 

-The featured pictures on the front cover clearly indicate a schooling environment, this helps the reader realise what this magazine is representing and what to expect to see inside the magazine.

-The colour in the background of the magazine helps make the pictures stand out, this will stand out to the audience and cause them to read the magazine.

-Different types of camera angles, but mainly medium shot and long shot pictures

-Pictures of students succeeding

-School year

-Transparent school logo on the magazine to make it stand out and add effect

-Strap line- "putting achievement first"

-White font, to make the writing look clear and stand out
