Deconstruction of School Magazine 1



This is Wallasey High Schools, school magazine, when you first look at this magazine you are attracted to so many things as there is quite a lot going on in the magazine, the main draw in that attracted me is the school logo, on the very top right, as it stands out because of its bold colours and it being in the corner nothing is over lapping or hiding it. The heading of this magazine is the name ‘Life’ on the left centre of the magazine, this is thought was blended into the back round, and also it has been used in transparent colours so it moulds into the back round and also it is over lapping the main picture. This magazine cover has a natural out doors back round and this shows that the pupils are actually outside and not cropped in  later, it is sunny out which is giving off a good atmosphere as well as the pupils looks on there faces.The school name is at the top and central of the magazine and it does stand out as it has a black outlining all around the white writing, the logo, the heading of the magazine and the school motto have all used the same colours as this is the schools colours, black, red and white and this represents the school more.

As mentioned the motto is sticking with the school colours although hard to notice on the top left of the magazine.Although the main sections of the magazine are quite powerful colours at the bottom of the magazine, quite dull colours have been used to tell us information on what’s happening in the school, they don’t stand out as much and because they have been put over the main picture difficult to read, if a black outlining had been put around the writing it would have definitely stood out more.
