Final Cover Analysis Using L.I.I.A.R

Final Cover Analysis Using L.I.I.A.R

Language - The picture shows a girl who is writing, showing you that she is a hard working student. The colour of her vest top is the same colour of the glow around the letters. The story about the Halloween party has a ghostly glow around it and the use of the word disappear adds to the Halloween theme and ghosts. The model is represented in a positive way as they are smiling, and they obviously enjoy the work they are doing. The cover is conventional as the tagline is in a smaller font under the title, I placed the masthead in the centre of my cover.

Institution – Wyke is a sixth form college that promotes the idea of respect equality and fair treatment. It respects the idea of learning and tries to get the best out of it’s students. Most of the students are 16 – 19. This is why on the cover I used a young model as this represents the students who are the target audience of my magazine.

Ideology – Wyke presents the idea of positive learning on the highest standard. Every one is taught to respect and treat everybody fairly. And Wyke is proud of its sports teams and it’s high pass rate.

Audience – The audience of my college magazine is the students of Wyke, The target age range is 16 – 19 year olds. 50% of Wyke students live in Hull, However the other 50% live in the East Riding.

Representation – The students in my magazine are very positive, as they are all happy and working hard, They are not shown partying or causing trouble which may give them a negative representation.
