prelimary Task 1

For the first task, we have to make a front cover of a school magazine. My target audience is towards Helenswood School year 10 and 11, I had chosen this audience because girls mainly like to get creative and take part in different activities, such as making cards, cooking etc.

I called it Involved because the magazine is about people getting involved in doing different events, it encourages people to different activities and having fun, it does tell people what’s going on but it’s a twist that you can get involved if you like the event which is taking place.

The magazine is monthly so the front cover is always something to do with what happens that month, such as December will have a snowy, Christmas scene on the cover and there will be events which are to do with Christmas.

<---- Rough drawing of front cover.

My issue will be for October so the front cover is going to be presenting two girls in Halloween costumes eating Halloween sweet etc. I want this type of image on the front so it looks natural and that they are having a fun time and they aren’t just posed in front of a camera. The font of Involved will have cob webs dangling down from some of the letters and the image will be taken in a kitchen to emphasis the feeling that they created something for Halloween and they are doing something for Halloween. I will have the articles to the left side of the page with a few images of what people will be doing.

This is my final piece of my front cover.
