Magazine Cover 2

This is my final Magazine Front cover for my 1960's music Magazine. This magazine will be based of "the decade the changed music forever" and had a massive impact on the world still today. I have based the image of the cover of a famous image by the Beatles (Seen at the bottom) I have used that image as it is an image of the most famous band of the 1960's as well as the audience can relate to the image because of the massive band. I used the grey background to show the 1960's feel to it as movie and television was white and black for many years. I've also added many modern sequences on the cover like 'Twitter and 'Facebook' pages.

Double Page Spread 2

This is my final Double Page Spread for my 60's music Magazine. Comparing the draft to the final product there are many differences. One is the coloring of the image modeled by my four friends (Owen D, Danny W, Boj G, Marcus L) to a gray image as this image is based off a famous photo of the The Beatles (At bottom of the page) as it is the most famous band from the sixties and could be very relate-able to a wide variety of audiences. I also changed the shading of the background of the image to a lighter gray so it could represent the way television and movies were seen in the 60's gray and black, this also refers back to the title '1960's!!!'. I as well Changed the title 'THE HISTORY' to "The HISTORY of the 1960's Music" also with the quote "The decade that Changed music FOREVER" to give the audience and idea how big this decade of music is.

Pre-lim History of Cardinal Heenan School

History:

The school is named after Cardinal John Carmel Heenan. Until 1983 it was known as Cardinal Allen Grammar School, when it merged with St Margaret Mary's Boys' School. It opened in September 1958 with around 300 boys when administered by the Liverpool Education Committee. Next door was the Convent of Mercy (R.C. Girls) High School, a girls' grammar school on Yew Tree Lane.

The school was originally based at two sites, one for Year 7 and 8 (years 1 and 2 of the old school year system) around half a mile (800m) from the main building on Pilch Lane, Huyton. The upper school, now the only building, is based at Honeysgreen Lane, West Derby.

Pre-Lim Cardinal Heenan Sixth Form School Magazine Interviews

INTERVIEWS

Gary Aster: Gary Aster is the sixth form study centre over looker and we had interviewed him to see what he thinks of the sixth form. We had asked a few questions about his time at this sixth form, he told us “I have been working at this school for nearly 3 years and has enjoyed many moments working here.” We as well asked him about if he enjoys working here and he replies saying “I do very much so, it is a well worked sixth that it’s strict but still lets the pupils be free at the same time, I’ve worked in many schools but this one has probably been the best”. We then asked what he thinks of the organisation of the school, he tell us “It’s very well organised and I believe you get a nice range of subjects which attracts most people to the school and the support you get from the staff is incredible makes the students more encourage to go out and achieve their goals to do with school”. And finally we asked what he think of the staff and fatalities he replies “To me it might be some of the best in all of Liverpool to do with both staff and facilities because the staff isn’t just a teacher to the students, they can relate to each other witch as it is very good or the pupils as he motivates them to learn more and the facilities are great we have this study room which helps the pupils more and the canteen has great food for the staff and pupils so its makes the a good environment for the pupils”.

Albin Cyricac: We as well interviewed a few students such as Albin who is very popular between the students of Cardinal Heenan and a good student as well. We asked what him what he thinks about the school He thinks “It’s one of the best sixth forms in Liverpool” We asked him as well of what was the best parts of school he listed to us “the study periods, the food, socialising, the independent studies and the facilities.” We asked him what he would want in the school and he told us “We need more trips for the students so we can look forward to something”.  We asked him what he thought of the staff he replied, “They are great to us and want us to do as best as possible and really can relate to us and how we work, which motivates us to do our work”.
