I will be using this for my front cover.


The Final Picture!
I just edited the contrast to make it look better :)

 <----- This one of Jazz is a picture for the contents page.  Again, I have edited it.

I just used a cartoon filter and edited the brightness and contrast a little.

Textual Anaylise Of a Student Magazine - "ETC Contents Page"


The contents page is organised into two halfs.

Textual Anaylise Of a Student Magazine - "Smaart Talent"


On this magazine cover of "smaart TALENT"  there is a very large masthead of the title TALENT. The word smaart is placed vertically on the side of it, in a smaller text. Talent is ovbiously bigger and is deliberatly to catch peoples attention. The magazine is aimed at Black and Minority Ethnic Students and the image on the front cover is a close up of an Asian musician "MC Riz" who the students could see as a role model.He is making eye contact with the audience, so it connects with the audience. Its to influence all the careers one could have.
There is a colour theme of the text which is pink. Its a fluorescence pink, so this could be used to attract young readers.  The image of the MC could attract a more male audience but then the pink font could attract a female audience.
   When you pick up the magazine, it suggests when you read it, you'd become more talented. The magazine gives of that you are all talented in some form.
The volume of the writing is eye catching, and you instantly look at it. The most important parts of the front cover are in bold pink text.
