Things to consider when creating a magazine By Rebecca Pearse
The  size  of the text is  very  important  as you do not want it to be  too small  for the  viewer to read yet you do not want the text to be  too large  and space consuming as the viewer would think it is for  children .
It is important not to use to many  dif fer e nt  fo nt s  when creating a magazine as this may put the reader off and make them think that the magazine is not very professional. When creating a magazine it would be best to use no more then  3  different   fonts  on the front cover. It would also look professional if they use these  same fonts throughout  the magazine as to create a set house style for the magazine. Finally it is important to make sure you choose an appropriate font for your magazine. As you do not want to give the wrong impression. For example if you were to use a  big curly bubbly  font this may not be appropriate for a professional magazine.
[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],The  colour  of text and backgrounds are  very important  as they are supposed to compliment each other. It is important to not have too many  di ff er en t c ol ou rs  as this will look unsophisticated and unprofessional. Although it would not work to have everything the  same colour  as you would be unable to read the text.  A typical magazine will use  two  or  three  colours throughout, these are usually primary colours.
Colour Scheme’s ,[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],Similarly to what was said earlier in this PowerPoint the  colour  is very  important.  Having the right colour scheme is essential in creating the right effect.  Similar again, there should not be too many  diff er en t  co lo ur s  as this could cause the magazine to look tacky and unprofessional.  Using a  sim il ar   se t  of   co lo urs  may look effective such as different  sha des   of   th e   sam e   col our .  White is a conventional colour on a magazine as this looks professional on magazines. The colour scheme may also relate to the genre of the magazine, for example a rock magazine may use the colours  black  and  red .  Whereas a gossip magazine may use  pinks   and  purples   to attract there target audience.
Language Lenguaje Langue  The language should also be considered when creating a magazine as this should be appropriate for the set target audience. An example of this would not to use any  big words  in a children's magazine, and again the opposite way round. To make sure that the language is appropriate then it would be useful to ask someone who is of your target audience if they think that the language you have used is appropriate and change it if not.  Depending on the  type of magazine  you should be careful when deciding to use  formal  or  informal  language as this could either attract the reader or put them off. In a more sophisticated type of magazine it may be more appropriate to use a formal language whereas if it is a more laid back magazine that likes to make a connection with their audience then they may choose to use a more informal language.

A conventional magazine will have the masthead at the top as so when on a magazine shelf the title can still be seen.. A typical convention would be to have the main image in the centre and the cover line underneath it to show they are together. Puffs and plugs would be shown around the edges of a typical conventional magazine. such as the layout style on the left hand side. The magazine layout in the middle and on the right may be some different innovative styles to think about although it is shown that the most popular and successful is the conventional layout.
