3. Come up with a Name, headline, strapline and article ideas.

NAME:
The name I chose was "The Idsall telegraph" so that it could be shortened to "IT" - I did this so that the magazine would be more informal, and more likely to be read by the students that would be my target audience.


STRAPLINE-
This came after I thought of my magazine, and imdieatley I thought of using, "Have you got IT?"
it's short and catchy, and could be interpreted in different ways. A literal have you got 'IT' as in the Idsall Telegraph magazine.


After speaking to several people from the target audience (12-18) I received, all round positive comments on the name, and the strap line for the magazine. Comments included:

"I like the title, it's really catchy, and easy to remember, and I like the play on words in the strap line, it's clever"

"Its clever in how it can appeal to older students, with the Idsall telegraph, but still can be informal when shortened, something that younger students will like"

Article Ideas, I planed my article around photographs that I had either taken recently within school, or planned photo graphs specifically for the magazine. Here is an example of the photos that I used.

1. Taken in Iceland, on a school trip - Would be an ideal feature for the magazine.
2. Sports articles feature heavily most school magazines, planned photo, ideal for the magazine
3. Taken in London, this will relate to the school production of We Will Rock You.
4. Planned photograph, for the 'Agony Aunt' section.
5. Sixth Form at Christmas - as it is a sixth form special this would be ideal.
6. Again as it is targeted at Sixth former's this image shows students revising for exams.
