Evaluation of research and ideas for our magazine

After researching into multiple college magazines we noticed common features that was in a large quantity of the college themed magazines. We noticed that all magazines aimed at students used a sans serif font because it connotes a more informal approach. So we decided to use both however our masthead the main focus is sans serif. We also decided on our cover lines because most college magazines had things about lifestyle on the front so we decided to do the same using things like university and driving licences as these are common things in a students life. The cover picture we used is very fun and welcoming which we felt fitted the magazine. Although most student magazines were full of studying information we felt most students would like to read about fashion as well so one of our cover lines were based on fashion. One of our cover lines was 'Top 5 Student Bars' we chose this because most students enjoy to spend time with their friends in a fun environment so we feel this would be a successful selling point as we are understanding the students needs. The last cover line we chose was a competition to win a high quality laptop, with this it gives students that may not be able to afford a laptop the chance to win one. The name of our magazine was 'Result' we chose this because most other college magazines are focused around studying or lifestyle so we think result gives a focus on what the students are working towards, results.
