Pre Lim Task 2-Sketch Of Front Cover

I had to draw out a rough sketch of the front cover of a new school magazine. I have stuck to many of the codes and conventions of a magazine such as having a main image, a masterhead, buzzwords, a price and many more.I have also thought about the mise-en-scene and how that would need to be as the main article i have chosen to feature in the magazine is about film club.
