Flat plans



I chose to call my magazine THE L WORD as it corresponds to Lewes.
I have chosen to use the times new roman font because I think, when enlarged, it looks quite chic. It is also reminiscent of news papers which I like the idea of as it will be the container of college news.

I dont really like the look of magazine covers with the stories all scattered around the edge, I realise it's a college magazine but I would still like to instill a somewhat editorial approach. I have chosen to have the student on the cover holding up a sign in a mugshot fashion and to have all of the stories listed on that. I am tempted to have the student dressed up as a club kid but I haven't thought of a way to make this appropriate just yet.

My contents page is failry simple. I am sticking to the TNR font for the numbers and the word Contents but I have decided to go with a more fluid font for story titles and descriptions so as to contrast with the harshness of TNR. I have arranged my stories into a list format to go with the list of features on the front of my magazine as I think it is important to have some sort of running theme in the magazine.
