Preliminary Task- Proposal

I am aiming my magazine at South Downs College students. Between age 16-19, mixed race, gender and interests. 
I will have a theme for each magazine, so for each subject. For example; Music one month then Biology the next month and so on. I will include articles reviewing things that will help the students. And a monthly homework planner in the magazine.
I will use cover lines such as 'meet the life style' 'discover the gigs' using simple colloquial language.
My title of the magazine will be 'The SDC' I think that its simple and isn'y too 'collegey' and cheesy. I contemplated using 'The South Downs College' but it didn't have much impact.
I experimented with fonts but chose the middle one as it was simple but effective.
I am going not going to use a tagline because i don't think that the magazine needs it.
The magazine will be published monthly throughout the year.
I am going to put a portrait, mid shot image of a college student on the cover because it fits the conventions of a student magazine.
The magazine will be printed in A5 so it can be easily slotted into a bag or pocket.
I will use the image of the college student on a white background, with the masthead in the black and green, and the cover lines in blue.
