Initial Ideas for my Student Magazine

House Style

  • Basic pallet of colours - 3-4 max
  • Subtler brighter/less dull colours like red
  • 2 similar looking fonts - Impact and Trebuchet
  • Font with outlines for easy reading

Masthead

  • Top of the cover
  • Bold
  • Large
  • Outlined
  • Contrasting colour
Central Image
  • Subject looking at camera
  • Medium/Medium close-up framing
  • Maybe a slight tilt
  • Posing not too forced
  • Depth of field effect creating blurred background  
Name

Trying to connote college, education, fun, friends, future.
  • College and You
