InDesign Cover

This is the cover of the Orpington College student magazine that I have developed in Abode InDesign.

The specifications for the cover were:
* to have one medium close up image of a student
* to include at least two straplines
* to only use sans-serif font
* to have a theme that will run into the contents page.

As my theme I have chosen to use green semi- transparent circles over the main image. I chose to use green as this a typical colour used by the college publishing team and therefore is a colour that is generally associated with the college. Blue is also a colour associated with Orpington College (as you can see the subject of the main image is wearing a tag from the college which is blue), but I chose green because I feel that it is a warmer colour than blue and therefore more welcoming.
