Mixmag Analysis - Hollie


  • Still photo (Not live)
  • Colours fit with house style
  • Celebrity as main picture
  • Contents split into different sections
  • Organised down the side
  • Not all over the place
  • Aggressive image
  • Picture of the front cover on the contents page

Preliminary task contents page - Matthew Music Mag

Colour – I used bright colours to make the cover look appealing to the reader and attract 


attention.



Font – I used a simple font for the text so it looks professional and easy to read.



Image – I think this image is suitable for the magazine because it portrays the college well. 


I also tried to place the image off-center, use the rule of thirds and get the lighting correct.





Model – The model in the image gives off the message that is intended. She looks to be working 


hard with her work.
