I began the publication by adding in the text first which I had already drawn on my first plan. I started with the masthead which was 'A.Burghley'. This is short for the school's name Acland Burghley. I then changed the font and colour to make it look more vibrant and attractive to the audience and also eye catching so I contrasted the colour with the main mid-shot picture of the magazine. After placing the master head at the top, I then decided to add in the strap lines and lures. These are used to attract the reader and make the school magazine more appealing. I made sure that some of the font was similar to the master head and some were different, so my front page consisted of two different fonts. After I placed the straplines along the bottom, and lures along the side, I added in the main picture of the front cover. I made this to fit the whole page an then changed my text and colour around so that it looks more like a magazine. I used the same theme of colour throughout which makes the magazine look more professional. At the end, I added in extras such as the issue, date, and websites so it looks much more like a magazine.
For my schools contents page, I kept it quite simple but used relevant features to make it look like a professional magazine. The same colours have been used throughout the magazine, as shown on both contents page and front cover. I also took pictures with a digital camera of the school and added this into the magazine to show what can be found inside the magazine. This is genuine, as all pictures were taken by me. I made sure that there was a contents page number, an the page consisted of what is going to be further on in the magazine. I did 'features' of the magazine, instead of a whole written contents page, so it only gives you a little insight of what can be found in the magazine. Some of the pictures were cropped and made smaller so it fits in well in to the contents page.
