Evaluation, Question one.

Our text uses several features that we discovered in the research phase of our preliminary project. For example we drew influences from "College" magazine when deciding how to present our masthead, and decided to use the name "College Daze" as it made it clear what the magazine was about and at the same time created a mordern fashionable attitude by using the word "Daze" instead of days. We also decided to alternate sides with the stories on the cover as opposed to aligning them specifically to one side or the other. The Magazine for "Beloit" Influenced our decision to use a lot of saturated colours and white, as this connotes sophistication and gives the magazine an upmarket feel to it. However we also decided that it would be a better idea to use mostly sans serif fonts, as this is what most magazines use, and also it creates a less formal and more relaxed atmosphere, that students and young people would prefer.
