Photography Editing Practice

5) Preliminary task Magazine Name Choice

1) Youth's LOL
My first choice of a school magazine name is Youth's LOL. I don't think this idea will work because it is to varied and does imply that this magazine would be too sociable and doesn't really have any connections with school. Also 'Youth's' could be used for a too wide range age audience and 'LOL' could be taken as youths are funny. But using young language (slang) shows that this magazine is for young people.

2) Sch's R US
My Second choice is Sch's R US. Unlike the first choice is does straight away have connections to do with school and using young language shows that this magazine is for an younger audience. But my problem with this title is that it has connections to do with a toy shop. So i think that this title will not work.

3) Learn & Live
My next choice is Learn & Live. This does have connections to do with school by learning, then live your life by the way toy want to. It doesn't use young language which doesn't show it is for young people, but learning is aimed at young people. The only problem i would have with this title is that it could be used for an older audience, for example people in work who want to go further in education (collage/university.)

4) BCHS Scope

BCHS Scope is my final choice for my magazine name & this is the title i will be using on my school magazine. The reasons why i choose this title is that it was the top mark in my questionnaire of ' What name do you think would suite best the magazine? ' This title has both connections to schooling/education & socializing. Also abbreviations of our school name has been used, so therefore shows that this magazine is aimed at young people. Also when people think of someone 'digging the scope' they think of something interesting that will draw them into the magazine. Therefore thinking that the magazine will be very interesting.
