College Magazine case study

Front cover analysis:
-The magazine masthead is a simple white font, the have shortened the name of the college to something more informal to create a more personal and casual feel with the reader. 
-They include allusions to other popular culture things in the cover line "The Big Fat Greek Trip". -There is change between the font of each subject corresponding with the subject that is talking about. -The main image of the cover confuses the eye as it does not necessarily correspond to the three colour scheme of the rest of the cover which is white, red and turquoise.



The Contents page analysis:
-the contents page of the magazine does not have any sub-sections, it just lists them chronologically. this makes it more difficult for the reader to find a article that interests them.
- the font on the contents page is completely different to the one on the front cover.
- The editors note is above the contents page reducing the amount that could be fitted into the contents.
-there are no pictures relating to the  articles of the magazine on the contents page but there does appear  to be white frames for them so this could just be a formatting issue with the PDF.
