I am starting to begin my creative journey, I expect that creating the magazine will take some time to do and I will need to do a lot of planning for the front cover, contents page and double page spread of my magazine. I also expect I will need to do a lot of work as well as at school. In the task I will need to do a lot of research to make sure I a preofessional looking magazine which would appeal to my chosen taget audience.

I think this is a good design for a picture although when I make my real school magazine I don't think I'll make something like this. the angle which is used would be extremely hard to take and also the picture shows the ball going into the goal which would be a very hard image to create and would take a long time to get the perfect shot. other than that I think the writing at the side of the magazine would be good to use as it talks about other things which will get people interested and buy the magazine.

This front cover isn't as good in some ways. It doesn't include the action in the picture like the previous one although the photo would be much easier to take. I could talk about the school and results taking a more academic view point in the magazine which some parents may find interesting although students would probably prefer the football magazine and something which interests them. To get students to buy it I will also have to include some other things to make it seem just as interesting. I am also considering to make the magazine about the music in the school. I think this would attract the interest of both pupils and parents.

Media pictures




This could be used on the contents page. It would work with other pictures around it and there could be information about the competitions between different forms.

I think this is a very good picture which should go on the contents page. It shows pupils working and I think this would be very good for the magazine as people would want to know about the education in the school.
 


This picture could be used in the contents page and could be used on the contents page to talk about the music which is going on in the school.

I think this would be a very good main picture for the main image on the front cover of my magazine. I will focus the magazine on the music aspect of the school which this picture will show very well.

I think this picture would be good on the contents page because I could use it to show what sports the school has which i will mention in the contents page.

I am going to use this on either my front cover or my contents page. I think it would work well as a main picture but also as a picture at the side on a contents page.

I think this picture would be good at the top of either my front cover or my contents page, i think it would be a good idea to put it at the front as it welcomes the audience into the school magazine.

I could use the boy in this and put it at the bottom of my front cover so I have more than one picture on my front cover to use to talk about the table tennis team.
Today was the second day that I took pictures, I have realised that it is hard to get perfect pictures which will go well on the cover of a magazine. I have decided to go into classes and take pictuires of the children doing their work which will be good on the magazine however in order to not distract them from their class I had to take pictures while they were working meaning that some of them were moving in the images and this caused a blur. This was a problem for me as I had to delete the pictures and it took a long time before I could get perfect ones.
