Flat Plan Rationale
Colour usage:
I used the same three colours for my magazine cover. I made the masthead red because it is a very vibrant colour and it stands out on the background. I also used red and blue for the sub-headings because these are also colours that will stand out on the background. I used blue for the title on the contents page because this is different from the title on my magazine cover. These colours are bright and therefore will easily catch the audience’s attention and it is easy to read from a distance.
Image Used:
When I add my photographs, I am going to take them inside of college, and of different students. I am going to take photographs of different things around college, and different activities that are going on. I am going to use long shots when I take my photographs so that I can get more than one thing in the image. For some photographs however, I am going to use close up shots of things that require more detail so that I can focus on the subject I am taking a photograph of. My main image is going to take up the majority of the magazine cover, as this is the main part.

Text Usage:
The masthead on my magazine cover is by far the biggest and boldest text. This is because the name of the magazine will be the most important thing on the front cover as it informs the audience the name of the magazine. I have named my magazine ‘College News’ because students will be aware that the magazine is about their college. My main sell line is about making money on campus. I made this the main sell line because students will be interested in making money while they are at college. I also have other headlines, such as information on activities and competitions.
Layout and Font:
On my magazine cover, I used the font Adobe Caslon Pro. I used this font because it stands out compared to other fonts such as Arial and Calibri. For the masthead and title of the contents page, I made this text bold and because it is the most important text. I also have other headlines on my magazine and I have positioned them to the sides of where the main photograph is going to be.
