Photo Composition

Print Prelim Rational




I have chosen the colours red, purple and yellow because, since my magazine is named Q.E I would use its colours, purple and yellow, and the red stands out from the other two colours which will attract the reader. I chose the name for the magazine because its the name of the Collage and the target audience is collage students so I named my magazine after it.





On the contents page i have kept the same three colours, I have only given away the top 10 features in the magazine as well as a few other images of what else is in the magazine.
