I now have to use LIIAR to analyse two other example of college magazines. This way I can review what others add in to there magazine to make it appealing. My first example is a magazine made for East riding college. Here there is a link to the magazine: http://www.eastridingcollege.ac.uk/retrieve/d2343bc1358b3983a89d916f6a988935 I will now use LIIAR to explain how they have used LIIAR and how effectively they have used it to create there magazine.
L- The language of this magazine shows that there is a clear masthead which stands out from the black background. This shows that the creator of this magazine has thought that using colours to stand out will be attractive and catch the eye of the readers. I know that the masthead relates to the magazine also because its talking about students. The colour of the font on all the other pieces of text including the masthead has been a constant house style. This then is also good because lots of colour hasn't been used making it look to overpowering. I believe the image doesn't really relate to the college itself, although it shows that it is college trip they have visited to. On the magazine a sub heading shows that they went to Berlin and this was an image that was taken there. Even though it does relate to the college, I still think that a better image could have been used. By reviewing this magazine on the language aspect I know that I have to use an image that people can connect to, but I have also learnt that I should only use 2 or three colours at the most so that it is clear to read.
I- The institution of the magazine I am looking at is East Riding college, this shows me that this is the publisher of the magazine in this case. This doesn't really tell me much about the college. But been its own publisher it may then want to show the reader that they want to be represented as a good college not a relaxed one and the right to learn there.
I- The ideology of this magazine shows the meaning of the magazine. In this case it shows that when you study at this college there maybe trips involved. This then comes across that the college offers trips abroad to connect with studying, showing that it is not all textbook work and using other methods of teaching is used.A- The audience of this magazine is the students who attend the East Riding college. This therefore means that the magazine is aimed at the people who go there, the image that is used on the front cover of this magazine shows the kind of things that happen as a student at this particular college.
R- The representation of this magazine shows that college life is fun, as one piece of anchorage says "media students in Berlin", this shows that going to this magazine could be good to go to because as well as studying there are trips involved. This shows to the reader that college life isn't always dull. The text at the bottom also represents that the college is also a good studying place as it portrays there is anti-bullying policy at the college.
