Making of the college front cover

First I started with the main feature and the featire stories as well as the mast head. This way I can work out what all the stories and the name before choosing the picture to go with it.
 
Next after putting in the main feature and feature stories I changed the colour of the text to match my colour scheme to make it look more formal. I chose the colour blue so the stories stand out from the mast head. Overall it also makes the mast head stand out in contrast to the stories.

To try and make the feature stories stand out more i've added title to them which have the same colour as the mast head. This way the feature stories grab your attention a lot more than before.
After this I added the plug and the bar code which are normal conventions of a magazine. The plug has the same colour scheme as the rest of the magazine cover to make it fit in yet stand out.
At this point I added the main image however the colour scheme didn't work well with the image so I had to change it.
Next I included the sky line and footer to the cover.
The text didn't match the colour scheme so I change the green text to yellow.
