USE: My magazine follows

its colour scheme throughout

the front cover, content page

and double page spread, as

do many real pop magazines.

DEVELOP: I chose to use

interesting shapes to make the

font stand out. Instead of just

using circles, I chose to use a

star to make important text

stand out which will attract the

audience and draw their

attention to the freebie.

barcode is at the top of the

page, as that is where it

looked best. This contrasts to

real media products which

usually have the barcode at

the bottom of the magazine.

scheme, I chose a use of four

colour scheme of pink, blue,

purple and white. This differs

from real media products that

usually stick to a use of three

colour scheme.
