Pictures for School Magazine

When taking pictures for my school magazine I decided to take more than I needed so that I had a wide veriety to choose from when I actually start to add them to my final magazine.

Because I am looking at how large work loads can make life harder on students I took some pictures of me looking confused and lost as a sort of before stage to having trouble with work. I have a wide veriety to choose from here so I can even use more than one I wish and because I will have advice on work and advice on revision I have a great amount of images here to wo
rk with.














Here are some more Images of me as if I have followed the advice whicgh I will write in the article and have done some good work and have become very organised in the way I not deal with school tasks.



















Front cover and Contents Page Planning

Front Cover

I realise that the front cover of my magazine has to show certain things: the name of my magazine, what the reader can expect to find inside and obviously an image of the main topic being looked at in the magazine.

As for the name of my magazine I have decided to simply go with 'Sixth Form', this is because I wanted to have a simple name which made it clear who the magazine was for: sixth formers and I think that this name works as the name of a school magazine.

The image I have decided to go
with for the front cover is a picture of a student (possibly me) having trouble with school work of some kind because my double page spread will be about how the stresses of work can get to sixth formers even in the first couple of terms.

As for the apearance of the front cover I want to go with something that mimics an internet page such as Youtube or facebook because I realise that these days the average teenager will spend much of their free time at home on the internet and I thought that it would be a real eaye catcher if I mage my front page and contents page look like certain website home pages.
