School Magazine Front Cover Draft:

The layout to the school magazine was to be kept basic, adhering to conventions like a medium shot, a clear title, issue number and text around the image.

Unlike the front cover example, my issue number would be in the top right hand corner, not as a bottom strip.

I would also try to create a border for my front page features on the right hand side, attempting to make the page look more refined.

If possible I would try to include a secondary image at the bottom of the page, accompanied by explanatory text on the right hand side.
