Ideas For My College Magazine

For my college magazine i needed to come up with what type of magazine i wanted. Upon thinking this through i thought that a science magazine would be good seen as I'm currently studying biology. After deciding what magazine i was going to produce i had to think of what angle i was going to take E.g chemistry, biology, physics or science in general. I finally decided that incorporating all of them into my magazine would be a good idea, although Ive focused more on chemistry i chose this because people seem to be more interested in that side of science.

Some of the names that i have come up with for my magazine are:

- Toxic

- Explosive!

- Periodic ( as in the periodic table)

- Danger!

- Warning!

- Atomic

I sat and thought these through and i eventually narrowed it down to Toxic or Explosive! after taking my audience and the fact that its a college magazine into consideration i finally decided on Explosive!
I then started planning my layout of my magazine front cover, i wanted a portrait of a chemistry student in a lab this was because it would relate to the magazine, i blurred the background of the image slightly so that the student is more focused. I then had to come up with a colour scheme i wanted it to be bright to attract the audiences attention but still look professional at the same time.
