Student Magazine Research 1 (Front Cover)

Elements of a student magazine (Front Cover)

After short research of a student magazine front cover, i've realised that the front page needs to be attention grabbing to reach out to the target audience and convince them to buy your magazine. Key elements in doing this include:
  • The masthead
  • Selling line
  • Dateline
  • Main image
  • Main cover line
  • Cover lines
  • Bar Code
In my next blog post i will be showing further research of my student magazine front cover, and discussing why such elements make such an impact.
