Magazine one Magazine two


The both have similar layouts, they both have large, easy to read Mastheads and a main picture, including logo's and captions but both have the same conventions.
Underneath the masthead of magazine one it says The magazine of Boarding school association, which lets the audience know more about the magazine.It is not at easy to read as it is in a smaller font but this is because the Title is more important therefor needs to stand out more. For magazine two it has 'The magazine of the preparatory school world' down the left side of the page not underneath the Masthead. It is slightly more noticeable than the other magazines sub-heading and it is on a grey background and is in a white font.
Both magazines have two large pictures. The Boarding School Association has a picture of three boys walking outside and they appear to be wearing a sport kit of some sort, this could suggest it has information on singe sex boarding schools or specialised school for example a Sport boarding school. The Prep School magazine has a large picture of a boy playing drums, suggests preparation for musical instruments, doesn't really show what else it can contain inside. Also below the picture it has a caption for the picture which says 'Prep School photographer of the year 2008,Alex Brindley,of Birchfield School'. The logo for Boarding School Association is in the bottom left corner. It is easy to notice the logo on the cover but doesn't take the attraction away from the title or picture.
This shows that same genre magazines can have a similar layout and conventions that create the look for the magazines similar yet different. Both magazines are simple and get straight to the point of what they are trying to portray.
