pictures for front cover

I am using this image as my background because this image shows the logo and name of the college i am chosing to feature in my magazine, it also shows a good view of what the entrance to the college looks like which makes for a related background to feature in the magazine.

I didn't use this image because the main image in the picture is in a long shot which is not conventional to a magazine as a magazine would use a mid-shot.

Although i like this image, I decided not to use this image as my background as I prefered the image i used because that image showed the entrance of the college which i thought had more relevance to a magazine cover.

i did not use this image as my background as the shot is slightly tilted and is not completely horizontal, and their are other people in the image which will take attention away from the main image.

i did not use this image because the lighting is bright in the bottom right corner and dull on the left side of the image which i believe is not very appealing to the audience.

i did not use this image as the main image is not in a mid-shot and is not conventional to a magazine.

i was going to use this image but i decided not to use it as the top of his head is cut off, and it was also very hard to fit him onto my background as he had to be placed with his head at the top which prevented me placing my masthead in a conventional area (across the top).

i used this image because this is conventional to a magazine, as it is a mid-shot, it was much easier to fit and blend into my background, he also looks happy which gives a good representation to the college.

i did not use this image because the main image  has his arms folded and does not give a very good representation to the college.

This image was not chosen because i do not belive that the image would have fit into the front cover aswell as the image i chose simply because of the position his body is in.

i did not use this image as on of the people have their eyes closed and they to not look very interested in the work they are dooing which gives off a bad representation, and this image is not a mid-shot of one image and is therefore not conventional to a magazine.



i did not use this image as my background because even though it gives a good view of the main corridor in the Oak building inside the Wyke campus, i believe that the lighting is rather dull and the main image (person) that i am using will not fit and blend into the picture aswell as the other background.
