This is my final front cover for my Post 16 magazine.

I have included magazine conventions to make it suitable and appealing to my target audience. I have done things such as put the main, important points in a circle and placed it on the 'sweet spot' (where your eye is naturally drawn to). The use of a circle also makes the text stand out. I have decided to choose colours for the text that compliment the colours in the picture- all the colours fit well together and sit nicely on the background image. I decided to add extra things that are included at the bottom, and I put it in a banner so they were still noticable and stood out, even though they are slightly out the way and with a smaller font size. I kept all the fonts similar as too many different fonts confuse the eyes and make things look tacky and unproffessional. Next time I make a front cover I will try and take more time editing and maybe try some more complex things, like blurring the background and adding multiple front cover images.
