Contact is a magazine for Castle School. I particularly like this cover and think it is quite professional looking. The masthead is simple in Arial, placed in a lilac coloured box with a small opacity. There aren't any captions on the cover as there are lots of images that tell the audience the content anyway. Plus due to its busy composition, captions would most likely ruin the look of the magazine. There are eleven photos on the cover, all portrayed with white outlining. The images are generally of students working and participating in recent school activities. I like how there are presented in a montage affect which is unique for a magazine cover. The general colour scheme is white and lilac, but there are alot of blacks and reds within the images but they havent been used in the general design of the cover. The mise-en-scene is unique for this magazine cover because it has a montage affect with the masthead being a different design from many others. I think Castle School have made a good effort to make their magazine cover, their own rather than using a typical layout, copying many other covers. Similarly to all of the other school magazines that I have researched, the audience would be the students and parents as the magazine involves information and updates of the latest news at the school.
