Ruthinian School







I am researching Ruthinian School magazine the features that i have noticed is the identity of the magazine. The magazine has pink and blue checked background what suits the identity of the school i can use black and red to suit the identity of the school magazine i am publishing. The magazine is published once a year and contains -






-Previous grades



-Pictures of students with captions achoring



-Staff (information about profession and some personal life)



-School events (tug of war, swimming, sports etc)



-Awards



-advertising for the school events (play that the students are conducting)



-Student activity



- Sports






the layout i feel isn't as effective as the sheaf. The sheaf was another school magazine that we researched and i will be elabourating more in my next blog.






The Ruthinian layout contains text that goes from left to right and contains pictures that i feel are not organised. Other than the front page the Ruthinian doesn't contain colour this can save money on printing and be the main reseason for the lack of colour.










the front page does not contain any other information other than the background and the masthead. This can be improved by an eye catching image or a contents on the front page giving a glimpse of the stories within the magazine.

  1. Can you post a link to the magazine so I can take a look at it?

    You need to say why the magazine is or isn't effective. To say 'isn't as effective as the sheaf' isn't analytical enough.
