Student Magazine planning

For the Preliminary task, i am designing the cover and contents page for a  student magazine.
To create the magazine i will use my own ideas but the also ask other people of my own age what they are interested in, then i would decide how to present this.  I will need to research and analyze other magazines to take inspiration from them for my own, i will have to look at the layout, font, colours, and why they have certain images on the front of them. From that i will decide what the format for my magazine will look like.
