Analysing College Front Cover

The purposes of this front cover s to pull in the student audience. You can also tell that this is an American College magazine as the houses are opposite each other with a thick road in the middle. This is obvious from the conventional American homes that you see in films, images and other types of media. Also another connotation that represents the American theme is the muscle car that they are standing in front of.
From the connotations of the people clothes shows the audience that the people in the front cover are students. With also the other signifiers on the cover helps the audience pin point the genre and insides of this magazine.
The font used in the magazine has been used well as it represents both sides of the college being the intellect and learning side and also the social and ‘teenage’ theme to it. This came to me by the white font being the intellect font with its bold and capitals’, showing its ideology of being the learning is the most important principle.
With text at the bottom it gives the audience and in look into the magazine letting them know what’s going to be inside to the either attract a niche audience or a large target audience.
