Magazine Development

Magazine Name Ideas:

St. John's Gazette - doesn't sound quite right, too long.  "Gazette" sounds too fancy for a school magazine.
The Observer - sees everything, reports back to everyone.  Un-biased name.
The Tie - link between school and parent, play on words (school tie).

I will use "The Observer", as it sounds sophisticated and gives the right impression.


Font Styles:

Front cover and contents page: Arial Black, as it is easy to read and not fussy.
Article title: Chiller, as it gives the article a more sinister feeling, which ties in with the story.
Atricle content: Franklin Gothic Book, as it is easy to read even when the text is small, and looks simple.

Intentions:

This magazine is to inform parents, students and visitors to the school of the latest goings-on, and also to offer advice on other school or work-related issues.  It would be published every month and distributed freely, so there is no need for a price or barcode on the cover.


The double-page spread in my magazine will be an article on bullying, and how to deal with it in and out of school.
