Chosen idea: School putting more money into their sports department, to promote healthy lifestyle for young children

Name of school: St. Daniel School CofE

As the school is advertising a healthier lifestyle through sport, the magazine cover should give an implication of this. Therefore, I have chosen to research images that surround this theme.

·         Magazines depicting "sporty school":

Though this is not the front cover of a magazine, it is still somewhat useful to my research. As we can see, it has a dynamic and energetic feel to it, due to the images and colours used.
The image in the bottom right hand corner has a very robust feel to it, depicting the enthusiasm and excitement of sport.
This is something I should consider when deciding what picture/s to include on my magazine cover.

In the top right hand corner, the text used (‘fun active educational’) is bold and large, and each word varies in size; ‘active’ is the largest word, giving the idea that it is of a higher importance than the others.
This makes me think I should also consider what parts of my magazine cover I should highlight over the rest.
Also, the pictures in this section of the magazine are placed in an animated way, making it pleasanter to look at; picture positioning is something I also must consider.

Moreover, the text standing out in general (through font, size and colour) is very important, as it makes the magazine far more interesting and appealing.
