ANALYSIS OF FRONT COVER
This is my analysis of a front page, its a magazine that is similar to the genre that i am going  to use, this is a Christian lifestyle magazine and mine is going to be a Christian music and lifestyle magazine. this cover is on a simple background, i am hoping to use a much busier background. 
PRELIMINARY TASK
I have done this task  as a practice for making my magazine front cover. I like the image i used, it is quite catching, i like the colours i have used, the blue is effective but it would have been better if i had  of used a bolder text for the masthead. i also should have put more text on the front. i have included things like the barcode, date and price which makes my magazine look more realistic. their needs to be much more information on it to make it more eye catching. i have used the college logo to help people realise that it is the college magazine. the pictures i have used are quite effective but i should have placed them around the page in a more effective way. For my finished product i will make sure i include more information and make my front cover more eye catching.

Why REVIVAL?

I have decided to call my magazine, Revival I thought this woud be an appropriate name as it has a Christian feel to it, and will immediatley show the reader what kind of magazine it is and what kind of audience it wll attract Christian revival is a term that generally refers to a specific period of increased spiritual interest or renewal in the life of a church congregation or many churches, either regionally or globally This should be distinguished from the use of the term "revival" to refer to a highly emotional evangelistic meeting or series of meetings either in a church building or a large tent or even in the open air see Revival meeting The aim of this magezine is to make people more aware
