Font
Serif font e.g times new roman - usually to do with past or tradition.
Sans serif e.g comic sans, Ariel, Tahoma Verdana etc. Appears modern
Handwriting font e.g monotype corsiva -more personal
Types of writing
Banner/masthead = title
Sell lines - text that reveals a snippet of information about the context
Burt - entise the reader into the magazine (more exciting to the reader)
Menu bar - tell the reader about other things that are happening, at the bottom
Barcode, issue date, price, web address
Call out- quotation enlarged from the copy on the page
Capital letters - shouting at you/ things that are important to you
Images
all camera shots translate into print
Black and White- classical/timeless
most magazines stick to a particular colour sceme, if not then it can look to busy and clutered
two types of magazine front cover:
1) busy and cluttered - attract attention of the reder (value for money, interesting)
2) Simple and clean - minimalistic look (dont need to put everything onfront cover because good fan base, sophisticated and organised)
Think about target audince, students, parents, both?
