LIIAR analysis of your front cover and how it was created

 Language of the magazine is shown by all the hook stories featured in the mid-left part of the magazine cover making the magazine look more appalling because it features main stories of such nature that students of the collage would like to know about. There is also the plug at the bottom of the magazine featuring a compition that some students may want to win buying the magazine so they can win it.

Ideology of the magazine focuses on alex in the front cover by the trophy case as one of the hook story's features the trophy case behind alex. he is looking at the camera in the corner of his eye.

Institution of the magazine is that this is a collage magazine so the publisher would be the collage itself.

Audience of the magazine would be students of the collage who want to know whats going on at there collage and what has been happening. This might be appealing to parents or teenagers who want to go to this collage.

Representation of the magazine would be that alex is wearing a green jacket with red jeans behind the trophy case as you can see in the background with many of trophies that the collage has won over the past few years representing the good features of the collage
