The magazine cover I am going to produce is going to be a Collage magazine for Wyke Collage.
Language
I was looking at the language I was going to put on my cover and what’s the connotations of other Collage magazines. I came up with the essentials I needed. A Masthead, it needs to be something that isn’t too long and will stand out to the rest. Also it needs to be quite memorable, and should be bold and eye catching as this is what people remember the magazine by, and the first thing they see of the magazine in a shop. I need a slogan that is quite catchy and snappy, and not to long to go with the Masthead what will make it memorable. I will also be putting cover lines on my front page so people will have a preview on what is inside my magazine. This will give them an idea of what the magazine is about and if they are interested in the issue of the magazine before they buy it. I will be charging for my magazine to cover the price of the printing and anything left over will go to a local charity. This may encourage more people to buy the magazine as they know the money is going to a good cause.

Institution
The institution I am doing it about is Wyke Collage. I am doing this as I know a lot more about Wyke as I attend there myself and have more information on it that any other College. It has over 1300 people attending the collage so a large audience to sell to and of both genders. Also as it is a 6th form Collage most people are aged 16-19 so will relate to things I will write about in my magazine. Wyke Collage had a 99.7% pass rate last year and it was the best results in Hull and East Yorkshire, it is one of the best collages so many people will want to read about it and know if it is keeping up to the reputation. It is all on one site and has recently been refurbished with £20,000,000 spent on it, so it will get more publicity as people will want to know about the new opening and how they have improved the collage even more.
Ideology
Wyke collage has the Ideology of respect to all and no bad behaviour will be tolerated in any circumstances. They believe that education is the start of a successful life and everyone who attends Wyke should always try their best and work to their full potential. Wyke have very successful results and believe that they will continue to be successful. Wyke has a strong sporting background and has many achievements through sport and believes it’s a good start to a healthy lifestyle, many different types of sport classes are available to everyone’s taste. Wyke also try and provide a healthy lifestyle with the option of food they provide, giving lots of different option and choice for everyone.
Audience
The audience of my magazine is students at Wyke who are usually 16-19 and are hoping to achieve.
Also some parents of the students may want to read the magazine, so the magazine will be appropriate for all. The magazine will be mainly aimed at Wyke college students as its about things in the collage and what will be going on within it, although it may appeal to parent as they may want to know what their child is doing at their collage.
Representation
The representation of the people in my images are going to be happy in the place that they study and will represent a good image for the collage. Also giving a positive attitude towards the collage. This will give a good representation of the collage for the audience reading the magazine.
