Conventions, audience and content of my magazine

Conventions

The conventions of my magazine will be a masthead to let the audience know what my magazine is called this will be the largest font, I will have a bold headline to draw attention to my magazine, and this will be something that students and parents are both concerned so it will catch the eye of a wider audience
My magazine cover will have a picture taking up the entire background that is surrounded by cover lines letting the reader know the other articles in the magazine these will also have features below them to lure the reader in giving them an insight on the topics inside the magazine, the magazine will keep a house style of red, black and white so that the audience is able to recognize it, there will be a banner across the bottom to attract attention, it will be red with white text  on it, so that it is easy to read and this also stays in colour with the house style
The layout of the magazine cover will be well organised and professional; there will be a strap line below my head line to give more information on the main topic, drop shadows will be used to make text stand out over the picture and banners

Audience

The audience of my magazine will consist of mainly students because it will tell them important information like deadlines and exam days/results, revision classes and things like after school clubs and things that school are doing general, it will also be aimed at parents letting them know what their kids school is doing and also letting them know the important deadlines so that they can keep on top of their kids homework and revision
