My magazine’s title is called ‘The Victorian’ and it is strictly aimed at the parents of the students that attend Victoria College.
I used an Apple Mac to edit my front page and my contents page for my magazine using Photoshop.
My front cover entails a photograph of Victoria College that I took with a camera and imported onto an Apple Mac, I added an effect to the photo to make it look interesting and slightly more sophisticated. For this project, we had to use a photograph of a student in medium close up for the front cover of the magazine. The student that I chose was myself, I tried to look as smart and as professional as I could, as I needed to look smart for the front cover, so I could proudly represent the school. If I had not looked smart, this would give a bad reflection on the school and possibly repel readers from the magazine. I used the same background effect for the photograph of myself because it makes me look equal to the background, giving the magazine a better overall appearance.
The title of my magazine was essential, I had to make the font stand out, and also make it blend in with the background. I added an inner shadow and many other effects in order to make the title look as if it had been professionally printed in. Below the title is Victoria College’s emblem that I also imported from my camera. I had to cut the emblem out using Photoshop using the magic lasso tool and import it onto my front cover. I also used shadowing to make the emblem blend in with the background.
The jingle located on the bottom right corner of the magazine is used to promote the magazine and to make the jingle memorable and catchy. ‘Opening doors to your future’ is quite a high status jingle which again promotes the magazine as it is aimed at the parents of the students.
The front cover is supposed to promote Victoria College and attract readers with the bright background and striking title.
