Preliminary task introduction

In todays lesson, we were told what our preliminary tast was going to be. Our task was to design the front cover and contents page of a schools prospectus.

We were asked to focus on ideas such as:

• The target audience- Aimed at parents and students.
• Images- Maybe images of perfectly dressed smiling students
• Language- The use of Formal or Informal language or the use of persuasive and informative language.
• Contents
• Logos and colour schemes- The use of bright attractive colours.
• And finally means of attracting the targeted audience- through the mention of rewards schemes such as school trips.

We also looked at things that may help improve our front cover such as the use of different camera angles, the use of persuasive phrases and many more. We also looked at  front covers of past pupils. I found this lesson very helpful as it gave me ideas on what i might include in my own front cover and also what worked and what didnt.
