Analysis

This college magazine is a typical look for students. It is aimed for students in the higher education. This magazine is very dull still like by the plain colours of grey white black and red. Red is a good colour to choose as it is an alarming colour. This especially works as they have informed a ‘win an LG shine’ this grabs the reader’s attention. The student on the front is rather laid back giving eye contact to the audience reading this magazine this also grabs the reader’s attention. The student also isn’t the typical student as he has tattoos this gives off the affect that this magazine is ‘cool’ for students. The title of the magazine is very basic and stands out. ‘LIFE’ is on the side of ‘CAMPUS’ which could show that this word isn’t necessary important unlike ‘CAMPUS.’ This font will follow on in issue 6 as this magazine is a well-designed front cover. They have included information which is more for the young adult to read for example ‘birth control’ which is aimed for the girls and ‘gamers lounge’ aimed for the boys and then a mix-gender ‘clothing you shouldn’t live without’ Young adults are more likely to read this because there style is important to them and for girls they want to stay safe as they are in education which states the obvious and boys are generally into games and wants to know about new games releasing. This magazine also includes artists within the music. This is an attraction to students as everyone listens to music. The magazine is also released termly as this magazine is spring/summer this proves students don’t want to read a college magazine every week, because they don’t have the time or aren’t interested.
