This magazine cover is for FFH school. I particularly like the design of this magazine cover and the fact that they have clearly taken the time to create a logo for the school and insert it onto the cover. The magazine looks like it wouldn't have been quick to make as there are alot of shapes fading of colour involved. This probably would have been created through a recent, up to date editing programme, such as Photoshop. The masthead is located in the corner, presented clearly as it is outlined with curvy lines. There is one typical looking caption, saying "Sports Overview" and "a Successful Year..." underneath in a bold typeface, and then "...see back page sports news" in a different colour and a smaller font. The rest of the caption is in a maroon colour, as is the masthead. Maroon is one of the main colours within the school's uniform so they have chosen this colour for the cover as a link and representation of the school. Something as simple as the colour scheme can help the audience identify which school the magazine relates to. In the bottom corner is a text box, also outlines with curvy lines, but this is isn't a normal caption. The text box includes the contents of the magazine. This is also a unique feature to the cover because magazines don't tend to have the content on the cover of the magazine. There is one main image of the students playing netball, which links with the caption. I particularly like the angle and composition of the image, it isn't just students playing netball but it shows a unique point of view through the angle. The mise-en-scene is generally layed out clearly and isn't too busy. It is easy to read and gets straight to the point by the choice of image. Again, the audience would be the students and parents.
