Masthead: The Title is basic but bold which stands out. The colour pink also grabs the attention of the people reading it and it also indicates that anyone can read it such as a male or female and is not targeted at a particular person.
Dateline: There is a date on the magazine which is september 2010 and a price of US$ 4.00.This magazine can be for students from any college student and not for anyone particular. On The top f the magazine it also says 'great since 1986' which is the selling line and will persuade students that are getting ready for university to buy it as it is a good magazine and has been for years.
Cover lines: There are many cover lines on the front cover that relate to university and what will catch people's attention. The cover lines are also not boring and relate to student who will look at the front cover and would want to read more.
A barcode is not displayed on the front cover as it can be displayed on the back of the magazine.
Setting: The background is blank and just the colour white but there is a lot of colour in the headings and text which stands out. The text seems very immature and childish but looks fun and will attract young people as they will like funky fonts which will look like a good magazine to them.
There is a boy standing who looks really serious with a suit on which can show that he is serious about education and has a lot ot say but on the other hand his wearing trainer which can show that even though he might be going university and seems very mature, he might be into sports and enjoy himself at the same time.
The type of lighting used is high key as it's a good and fun magazine and not scary or mysterious for there to be any low key lighting. It also brings out the colours and the white on the young mans shirt and the background looks very sharp.
There is also non- verbal communication as there is no noises but the person is staring at you and looks really serious.
Denotation: We can see a young man dressed smart and his hands in his pockets.
Connotation: This suggests that he is a serious student ready to inspire others to do well in higher education.
