LIIAR Anaylsis of East riding college magazine!

LIIAR analysis of East riding college magazine;
Language - The front page of the college magazine include a conventional master head which is align at the top centre. The master head is plain and simple and take up too much space at the top of the magazine. The master head is very large which can be a good thing as it is the first thing you notice on the magazine which is what you want on a college magazine as it would stand out from the other college magazine but thing master- head doesn’t say chose me it says that there not trying hard enough to grab students to the magazine as it is white and has a plain font on top of a plain black background.  The image in the centre of the magazine isn’t a medium long shot of a student but is extreme long shot of a couple of students on a trip in berlin which doesn’t show anything about the college except there had trip to berlin. The brand name of logo is at the bottom right which doesn’t stand out and you wouldn’t be able to see if it was stack behind other college magazine.


The contents of the east riding college magazine is very plain and simple the contents box is in aligned top length this is conventional for magazine contents page. The contents page includes a few pictures but have black thick border that make the page look unprofessional. It has no number or caption under the picture. It has no editor or head master letter and also it has no description.
Ideology - The ideology for the east riding college magazine will be to show how good the college is and also what sort of environment they have at East Riding and also to show happy and educated students. The message in this college magazine show that there wasn’t bothered about giving the college a good reputation as the magazine is simple and boring which could match the college. I think that the ideology of the magazine is to try make students enjoy college life but it just lacks in adventure and life,  the magazine is aimed a teenagers this magazine looks like it died. it doesn’t draw you in the slightest or even tell you anything about the college plus it's very boring and especially not new students or teenagers.


Institution - The institution of this magazine is East Riding College, it will be aimed and designed for 16-20 year olds who might be considering  going to college after they’ve finished school, this magazine doesn’t represent East Riding College in a good way as it the magazine lacks colour, text and uniqueness in my opinion.


Audience – The audience of the east riding college magazine is for 16 – 20 year olds who are thinking of starting college or already in college but thinking of moving to a different college.  This would be new students and existing students.

Representation – The east riding college magazine doesn’t meet up to the standards of existing college magazine, this is because the masthead is not in the conventional position  and you don’t expect to see and also the image isn’t a medium close up. This isn’t done very well as it doesn’t really give anything life to the magazines.
