Analysis of my front cover.

•  My masthead is Wyke.
• My sell line, 'BE LOUD, BE PROUD' shows that Wyke are very enthusiastic about students learning, also it encourages students to be proud of what they achieve while being at college, this how the magazine cover firstly interacts with my target audience.
• The photograph shows a 'perfect' portrait of students enjoying college life. By the smiles on their faces it shows enjoyment and interest in their studies, as the photo shows them revising and working as a group.
• My magazine front cover conveys a students life at college that the college and the teachers are very supportive of. The smiles on their faces also show that they're friendly and the college is very welcoming.
• My cover lines are short, snappy and captivating. They inform my target audience exactly whats going to be inside my magazine and with a cover line like 'New York' that will really interest majority of students.
• It represents the students positively, and the college. The bright colours infer a cheerful environment and  because it looks as if the sun is shinning in through the window it creates a glow surrounding the masthead Wyke making it look vibrant and full of life.
• The colour scheme I have used is fresh and lively. The purple masthead ties in well with the dark colours the male student is wearing, also it contrasts well against the white glow. The green plant in the background ties in well with the white and the green jumper the female student is wearing. The bright pink font covers the bottom of the picture making it stand out which catches the audiences attention. Keeping my colour scheme simple but vibrant, i have achieved a realistic college front cover.
