School Magazine: Titles


I used InDesign to create my school magazine logo. I used a range of fonts to try and find one which i liked and related to my general research. I couldnt not decide on a singular font so i decided to incorperate two fonts, much like one of my magzines from the general research.

I then changed the background and the font to multiple different colours to try and find a combination that looked appealing and fit into the colour scheme of the school. I decided on sky blue, maroon and white. I then changed the alignment of text and decided to have "The Wilmington Girls" on the left and "messenger" to the right. This is my final logo.

School Magazine: Front Page Specific Research


I have decided to focus on students using ICT equipment for my magazine which is to welcome students to the newly refurbished ICT suite. 


This image is of a young girl using the ICT equipment. This shot only includes one model using the ICT and is mainly focuses on the student, not neccessarily of the ICT equipement. 


This image is of a selection of pupils and shows them engaged in the ict equipement. Unlike the previous picture, this image shows a long stretch of pupils which i beleive is more effective.

School Magazine: Front Page General Research

I have researched into school magazines and found a range which I think are appropriate. I will then use this research to inform my specific research when designing my own school magazine.

The magazine is for parents and students who belong to Wilmington Grammar school for Girls. The school is for girls aged 11 till 18, with around 120 students in each year, including sixth form and 70 members of staff. The magazine will focus on welcoming the students into the new ICT media suite. This is the first issue of the magazine and will also be used to inform the existing parents and students of upcoming events, results and school trips.

Starting AS Media...

Im just getting to grips with the idea of Media Studies and found this image. I liked the fact that the background was faded out, highlighting the camera in the far left and thought id see how it looks.
