Deconstruction of a School Based Magazine

Deconstruction of a School Based Magazine Cover I can see that the people on the front cover are wearing blue and some are wearing their school uniform, as the main image of the boy is. So this means that the audience can easily tell that he is a student from Titus Salt School. This is the name of the school, which is ‘Titus Salt School’. This will give the audience a clear understanding of which school it is. As you can see here, this is the masthead of the school based magazine. In my opinion I think that they have chosen the colour blue for the masthead, because it fits perfectly with the school logo and makes you directly think of the school. This is the cover line of the magazine, which says 'Streets ahead'. In my opinion I think that it is trying to tell us that there is yet more dancing to come. This is the slogan of the magazine; the slogan is in dark blue which really stands out from the masthead which is in light blue. The slogan is very short which makes it unique and easy to remember, which also means it will entice the audience to get their attention and allow them to remember the slogan for a long time. In my opinion I think that the target audience for this magazine would be creative people because as you can see on the front cover the magazine will be about dance and dancing requires creativity. So therefore this magazine will be targeted at creative people. There is a boy on the front cover of the magazine dancing, whereas girls are at the back. I think that the message given is that boys are good dancers as well are girls and also I can tell that the magazine is not sexist as well. Mainly we see girls dancing, but this magazine shows that it is also for boys.

Deconstruction of a School Based Magazine CoverI can see that the people

on the front cover are

wearing blue and some

are wearing their school

uniform, as the main

image of the boy is. So

this means that the

audience can easily tell

that he is a student from

Titus Salt School.

This is the name of the school,

which is ‘Titus Salt School’. This

will give the audience a clear

understanding of which school

it is.

As you can see here, this is

the masthead of the school

based magazine. In my

opinion I think that they have

chosen the colour blue for

the masthead, because it fits

perfectly with the school logo

and makes you directly think

of the school.

This is the cover line of

the magazine, which says

'Streets ahead'. In my

opinion I think that it is

trying to tell us that there

is yet more dancing to

come.

This is the slogan of the magazine; the

slogan is in dark blue which really stands

out from the masthead which is in light

blue. The slogan is very short which makes

it unique and easy to remember, which

also means it will entice the audience to

get their attention and allow them to

remember the slogan for a long time.

In my opinion I think that the target audience

for this magazine would be creative people

because as you can see on the front cover

the magazine will be about dance and

dancing requires creativity. So therefore this

magazine will be targeted at creative people.

There is a boy on the front

cover of the magazine

dancing, whereas girls are at

the back. I think that the

message given is that boys

are good dancers as well are

girls and also I can tell that

the magazine is not sexist as

well. Mainly we see girls

dancing, but this magazine

shows that it is also for boys.
