This poster is very eye catching for the viewers/audience as not not only is the masthead in bright colours which are easy on the eye but it is also surrounded by a little explosion which makes the title look more stylish as well as giving the impression that the text is coming out at us becuase of the way it is distorted. The colour of the title (blue) connotates that the magazine is trustworthy (whatever is inside is true) as well as being an intelligent magazine. The main image stands out as it is not only above the blue school logo but also the red puff which says 'Only 20p!' these bright colours help make the main image stand out a lot more, the puff also attrractcts the audience due to the cheap pricing of the magazine. The two coverlines also attract the audience as on one of them a question is used which helps engage them and encourage them to find out the answer (the pictues also help back up the coverlines as well as make them clearer to the viewers). The other coverline also engages the reader as it says 'our school is on fire!!!', although our school is not literally on fire it suggests that our results from the tests which were taken were amazing and it is what every student wishes to hear.
Although the contents may look very simple it is actually very effective, the writting 'contents' has been written diagonally accross the page to not only make it fairly easy on the eye but to also make it go in the same direction as the ball to make it look like someone has thrown it accross the page (this relates to the sports section inside the magazine). Also the colour blue which was used for the writting of 'Contents' was use to make the magazine seem not only loyal, bhut again truthful and intellegent. However the normal text is coloured in red suggesting that there will be energy/excitement within the magazine therefore making the viewers want to buy it to see what is so exciting about the magazine. The two pictures below are also quite easy on the eye but it their main use in this magazine is to help the audience get a better understanding/idea of what is being described on the numbered content so they are not mislead (thinking the magazine withiolds information which it actually doesnt) therefore preventing an angry audience who did not get the knowledge they were hoping to get by reading the magazine.
