Analysis of preliminary task - front cover

Overall I think that my preliminary task was a success. I found the task fun and enjoyable and as it wasn't my final piece i found it easier to experiment and try out concepts and new ideas.
My front cover was a long shot of a student walking down a corridor, the title is large, black letters in a smart/ neat font. The entire background is the picture so the text has to be bright and bold to stand out. The subtitles showing other articles are organized below the main topic title with small pictures showing parts of them.

The photo is quite airy so this makes the text colour sceme (White and Red) look brighter than it actually is. Because the photo is looking down a corridor with the modle is in the foreground it gives the photo depth and adds space to the page.
