Preliminary Work

 
For my preliminary task I was asked to produce a front cover and a contents page for a school magazine. I will go on to use this work once I have created my music magazine later on in my course.



My front cover consists of two images, the first is the background image and the second is a picture of a teacher and a pupil. I chose these pictures as it shows both the school in which the magazine would be published and the people who will be featured in the main article. I chose to put the name of the school in a larger font so that it stands out and also included the schools logo, twitter and facebook address as these things are often found on a magazine cover.




When doing my contents page I decided to use the same colour scheme for the text as I the colours I used on the front cover are the colours of the school logo. I also included photos of students as well as a column on the right hand side which had the contents of the magazine listed. I didn't include every page in my contents page as I didn't want my contents page to look too crowded.
