College
Magazine Planning
Before I design my college magazine I need to consider
planning aspects of it. This will help the design process as it will be much quicker
and focused and allow me to have the best end result.
Possible
Magazine Names
- The Prior Preview
- Prior to Prior
- Where the College Things Are
- The Fresher’s Find
How many
pages the magazine will be
I am estimating about 20-45 pages for the college magazine.
As there are many subjects and events at Prior Pursglove College there are many
articles and features I could do. Judging from my questionnaire many of my
participants took media and/or subjects relating to arts, so to attract a wide
audience I should include some articles involving those subjects. They also are
participating in some clubs so I could also do a feature on what clubs are on
offer.
Possible
Content
- Advertisements (2 pages)
- Features ( 10 pages)
- Articles (5-10 pages)
- Information on Subjects (10 pages)
- News (2 pages)
- Student interaction (1 page)
- Other (Cartoons/FAQ) (5 pages)
Ideas

Colour
Schemes
As Prior Pursglove College already has a colour scheme of
purple and white, it is most likely that my magazine will keep the same house
style for consistency. However, purple and white isn’t the most eye-catching
colour scheme, so if I want my audience to be attracted to the magazine it will
need a much more vivid colour scheme.
- Blue and Orange (Contrasts)
- White and Purple (Follows house style)
- Black and Yellow (Contrasts)
- Pink and Blue (Compliments)
