This photo is a long shot as it shows his whole body. He is also avoiding eye contact which connotes shyness, however his stance connotes attitude and coolness.

This photo is also a long shot, because we get her whole body and the background in. This pose connotes fun and happiness. She is looking directly at the camera which connotes confidence.

This photo is a medium long shot. Her hands over her face suggest she is hiding, or she is frightened of something. The photo connotes laughter and fun.

My results show that my audience should probably be male, however because I didn’t ask a lot of people, I would like my magazine to be aimed at both males and females. My audience are also mostly Catholics; they also prefer the pop/R&B genre of music. All of my audience want to attend University and they all want to be successful, when producing my magazine I will take all of these points into account.

Example College Magazines - Favourites.

I chose this cover as one of my favourites because it looks professional, they have used a celebrity on the cover. The plugs are also interseting and attracted me to the magazine. She is looking directly at the audience which invites the audience in.
