Should it be funny or serious

funny serious

From my research I found out that the best colour scheme to use for the magazine is yellow and red however I think I will try to use the second most popular choice of blue and green too.

I also found out that the magazine should and so will be free and that people would most like to see a study guide the magazine and shop opening times for campus shops such as scribbles.

The magazine will be released termly e.g. winter term and will be mostly formal and serious but a bit funny too. Have chosen formal and serious and funny because for my informal/formal question and my serious and funny question, formal and serious were most popular and I’ve chosen funny as well because it was very close behind serious and I think it would make the magazine more enjoyable.
