School magazine ideas & experiments...

Name of the publication – ‘Heston Mag’, ‘The Heston’, ‘Heston Read’ I initially had three titles (masthead), for my magazine.

Colour schemes

– Colour is very important for magazine covers. I explored complimentary colour schemes to make the publication look attractive. Complimentary colours would visibly make the publication successful, as it would look attractive. Also as Heston Community School is an arts school, I will explore different colour schemes, in order to relate it as much as possible to the school.

For example black and white are two universally known colours, which compliment each other very well, so they are a compulsory elements in newspapers.

As the magazine I am creating is aimed at 14 to 18 year olds, I will make the cover colourful and contemporary.
