@Nunthorpe is a magazine cover for a Nunthorpe School. You can see that this school wasn't very creative or imaginative when it came to naming their magazine but perhaps they would prefer their audience to know the magazine by the name of the school so that there is no confusion. The masthead is rather simple and clear but the '@' is placed on a slant which joins up to the 'Nunthorpe'. It is placed against a blue box, which makes the masthead stand out and become foregrounded. There is one main caption in the middle of the magazine, saying "Leaps and bounds" in an Arial font and a bright yellow colour in large writing and "Fantastic new sports provision is getting students active" in a smaller font underneath, white and in a curvier styled font. Due to the caption and image, the audience can tell that perhaps this school specialises in sporting activities. The image is of one of the students jumping high on a trampoline, with four other students watching beside the trampoline. The caption is situated in between the trampoline and jumping student which is a good way of using the space. The colour palette consists of primary colours such as blue (in the masthead), yellow (in the caption) and red (in the image on the trampoline). These are all statement colours that stand out and make the magazine cover bright and eye-catching. The mise-en-scene is a simple, yet busy composition as it has only one picture and caption but it fills the whole frame. The audience may be the students and parents but also people who are interested in teenagers' life and education. Teenagers' health seems to be a top priority with the government and so people who are interested in its achievements in this department may be willing to read the magazine.
