College Magazine

L.I.I.A.R

Language - The camera angles on this cover is a full shot. You have the peoples full bodies in the picture and can see all of them. I think the creator used this image as they look like a band on a music magazine. This will attract young adults as this is one main thing they would be interested in.

Institution - This college magazine is called 'FUSE'. This looks like a magazine made by the college, however it could have been produced by the students. The students will have more of an idea what others will enjoy reading about and will find interesting.

Ideology - On the cover of this magazine they have included stories and issues which would relate to real life situations which people in the college may experience or find interesting to read about.

Audience - The audience for this magazine is college students as it is a college magazine. I don't think that it has a particular gender audience as it would probably been produced for any gender. The front cover would appeal to boys as it has a boy band on the front and alot of boy students may enjoy music and want to be in a band. It would appeal to girls as they may find the boys on the front cover attractive or might just find it interesting.

Representation - On the front cover of this magazine, the people are not represented as happy, maybe this is to give more of a professional look however it doesnt make the students look as fun. By the stories they have included a interview titled 'Hungover Stuntman' This could be a interview about drinking or may not but this gives the impression college students are about partying and drinking.
