Planning: Issue 2 Front cover and Contents

Here is a simple plan made on publisher that I might want my magazine to look like these are first ideas that I might want to do.

Front Cover:

This is the plan for the 2nd issue of my magazine.

Firstly, I decided that I would keep the bullet points of whats going to be in the magazine above the masthead. I have kept the masthead the same place. Kept the puffs and just moved them to different places. Also, for the off lead and main feature they are the opposite way round. 

The reason for the theme of going back to college is because this is the august magazine. And in that time of the month students are buying all the equipment to go back. This is the reason why I choose this sort of theme. This links to the Ta of being 16-25 as well.

The reason I have chosen these colours as august is the sort of time when summer is ending ready to go into the autumn term. For this reason I have added like the light green and blue in the masthead for summer and then added the orange to creep in the autumn ready look for the magazine. 

Contents:

This is the plan for my 2nd issue of my contents for my magazine. When researching magazines I have noticed contents pages roughly stay the same so that people reading the magazine contents already know where them headings are. 

Firstly, I have changed my contents colour to match my masthead colour. Again a this is a plan I am not sure if I want this bigger and more across the top. 

Next, I have kept the same layout with my features. Although this time I have shown an example of how I might put the numbers of the feature in the picture. This makes it more simple and I feel stand out more. For other features I have kept that diamond shape as bullet points to know where the other features are. 

I am not too sure if to change the colour or not as the puffs and the diamond bullet points are the same colour as the contents in issue 1.
