In this assigment i'm going to analysis this front cover of a college magazine.
This picture of a front cover contains the main image, a guy with his books in his hand and a smile on his face like he's ready to succeed. There's text around the cover in all different fonts and colours to show the importance of the coverlines. There's a sign by the near side of his head indicating advertisment purposes for a certain activity. The masthead is titled 'College' in bold capitals so people know then magazine name, and its in bright yellow which could link to the date ontop of the masthead, 'Summer 2009'. but behind the guy's head because he's the main focus of the cover. The main coverline is placed under the masthead's left hand side. It's a bit bigger than the over coverlines so its easier for the reader to spot the main one.
His clothing is his own style which he's chosen to wear, it's not too much so his image could denotate that he likes his casual wear to wear out on an average day. Thr props in this image are mainly his books which he's showing to the readers that he's got the equipment he needs to study with. he's prepared and has his mind set to succeed. The title of the book's cover showing towards the reader 'Law, Business and Society', could possibly state that his course(s) are based around that certain topic so he has the right study materials. He also has a chain around his neck which denotes that he's into fashion bling, it suits his style to himself. The chain is a modified styled version of the cross which tells the reader that he's a christian, believes in God. Another fashion prop he has on is a watch.
The lighting seems to be from studio lights because he's not a natural light source shinning from one direction onto him. There are two lights shinning on him from two different directions. The NVC is shown from his facial expression that's he's happy with the way he's going in life with his studies.
