Mission Statement
‘The Local’ is a magazine distributed for free amongst the younger generation. It’s been
described as the best upcoming free magazine by the youth of today. We strive in creating
articles for music, fashion, education, sport, gadgets and TV suited for both men and
women. ‘The Local’ is admired by many because it’s free and because of all the great con-
tent it includes.

THE LOCAL
Logo
The Local’s logo acts as a masthead on all magazines to establish brand identity. Designed to
aid with the simplistic layout of the magazine and for consumers to recognise what brand the
magazine is.

Colour Scheme
The Local’s colour scheme is black white and grey. The main colours used throughout are black
and white. Black is used for the mastheads and body text, white is used for the background of
each page of the pull-out magazine. Grey is only used for the captions under the images.

Typefaces
The fonts used in The Local pull-out magazine are Calibri, Brad-Becker light and Euphemia.
Calibri is used for the body text and image captions as it is simple so that the articles are easy
to read. I have used Brad-Becker light and have made the font bold for my mastheads so that
the text stands out. Euphemia is used for the sub headings. All fonts are similar to one another
and are bold so that they catch the audiences attention. All fonts used in the pull-out maga-
zine are coloured black.

Images
The images that The Local use are simplistic and natural. All
of the images have a soft edge to them and are related to
the content of the article in the magazine. Some of the im-
ages are cropped for maximum effect. Most of the indi-
viduals in the images are celebrities as a lot of the content
is showbiz related.

Language
At The Local we believe that the simpler the language of
the article is, the better. It must be suited towards the tar-
get audience of 16-25 year olds so the language must not
be too complex and formal. The purpose of an article is to
inform and entertain therefore relaxed lexis and the use of
colloquialisms is most appropriate.
