this is the london oratory school magazine this is an amazing magazine for a school they have a well done context page which tells you where everything is and brief notifications the only reason why i like this magazine is because it focuses only on the school and the fun around the school the actvities and the upcoming event with a brief headmaster paragraph called the headmasters study which shows that the headmaster is intrested in the outlook of the school compared to st thomas moore.

st thomas moore school magazine

this is St Thomas Moore schhol magazine called ATOMIC it is very plain with a poor design and its more of a leaflet or a flyer rather than a magzine they promote the winner of the school talent show and prom but they need more pages talk about whats going to happen in september, what teachers are leaving, how the schools going to change and gcse results. the magazine is only small with about 5 pages which gives info from the students i suppose about prom the film to watch of the month, the upcoming pplays or choir rehearsals this magazine is alright but on the desighn and layout its to clustered and looks very hard to read the words should be clearer for example the prom paragraphs are in a bigger writing than the radio road show which it shouldnt everything on one page should be consistant.

the source 2007

the source one of the most famous urban magazines in amercia released this 2007 of the rapper game in a black hoodie with a title saying "No Apologies" he's in a black hoodie with fake bloodstaines looking rough and ready for a boxing match. the header is "rise of the bloods" which is a famous american gang the bloods vs crips which is a massive gang warfar so to me this issue of the magazine looks like its promoting violence because theyre would be stories abou people from the gang injured or dead because they are in a gang

urban ink, music, tattoos and art

this was a magazine page where they advertised lil kim's return to the music indusrty to give her promotion so because they want people to talk about they made her high fashion with a bathing like suit the red bottom high heels with long brownish blondish hair almost like a barbie look for lil kim like shes ready for whatever happens this photo is plain but epic the writing is fancy and stands out from the grey looking background as she poses on this suede bench
rolling stone magazine ft rihanna has like mirrored images on both sides of the original artist she has brown to blondish hair against a white background covering the rolling stone title and at the bottom refers her to crazy in love so this draws you in to see if she is or isnt with her so called bf and big blsck writing about billy joel ready for a comeback so fans of him would want to see his new projects.
this is the cover to q music magazine at the front we have jessie j standing with her model billed height at 5'9 in short shorts looking like a rockstar in avery et pose she has very dark makeup to make her look rocky the picture is very plain but effective it stands out and has her name in pink with a big kiss and massive red pouty lips this would sell to hardcore fans of jessie j but also music lovers of the artist theyve included on the side of the cover.
