School magazine cover and contents

The magazine heading I have chosen is "The Haydon Weekly". The heading will have a colour display of dark blue and white, "Haydon" will be in thick bold letters whereas "weekly" will be in thin letters, "weekly" will also have a shadow effect. I have chosen to use dark blue and white to be in keeping with the traditional colours of the school. I intend to have a photograph taken from the camera of a puzzle piece with the word excellence centered on it. On the right of the photograph will be a mid-shot of someone taken from the camera with the words "Bright Future for Young Footballer" underneath in thin dark blue lettering, similar to the heading. Apart from the word "Haydon" all written words will be in Arial font. On the left of the main centered photograph will be "DRAMA" written down the side of the page, underneath this will be the words "New&Improved" in thin text. "DRAMA" will be coloured with white and "New&Improved" in dark blue, similar to the heading. Underneath the centered photograph will be (in bold) the words "STATE OF THE ART", this text will be embedded in a star-like frame. The background for the star-like frame is going to be white, and the text "STATE OF THE ART" will be in dark blue, much like the heading. Right under the star-like frame are going to be the words "more inside" in small capital letters, on the right will be an arrow facing right to indicate to turn the page. "More inside" alongside the arrow will be coloured in dark blue. 

On the inside of the main cover page is going to be the contents page. The stories i have chosen include sports related events, educational excellence awareness and new tips to start the school day off right. At the top of the page will be the word "contents" the text will be in exactly the same style as "weekly" on the front cover, dark blue text with a shadow effect. I have choosen 6 stories to go on the contents page, each title will be styled the same with the first letter in capitals with a shadow effect similar to the contents title at the top of the page. The style of letters will be the same as the contents heading, with thin dark blue lettering. Next to the story titles will be full stops contiuing to near the edge of the page, at the of the full stops will be page numbers in relation to where the stroies would be in the magazine. The page numbers will be in line, therefore the full stops will vary in relation to the length of the stories title. Underneath the contents story headings will be 3-4 pictures in connection to the contents stories, for example pictures of football, a construction site etc.
