2. I chose my masthead on the
website ‘dafont’. I chose the
font I wanted and typed in
the words I was going to use.
Here I have pasted it
onto Photoshop so I can
play about with it until I
get the right design I
want.
3. The tool highlighted I used to
draw a empty box around my
masthead. I then pressed ‘cut’ so I
could delete the rest of the print
screen I didn’t want.
I then pasted it back onto
Photoshop so I could add colour.
Before I could add colour I had to get rid of the back
ground around the words I wanted to use because I
just wanted to letters not the white background. To
do this I used the magic wand tool, I just pressed
around the picture with this and then deleted it.
4. To add colour to my masthead I
had to use the filling in tool.
Here I picked the colours I wanted
my masthead to be. I wanted it to
stand out so I chose two bright
colours that worked well with each
other.
I then zoomed in so I could see the letters I
wanted to be a colour more clearly. I then
pressed with the filling in tool on the letter
and it filled the letter in the colour I had
selected.
This is after I filled in the letters
with the colours I has chosen.
5. This is the main image I’m using for
my front cover. I wanted it to stand
out so I changed the image to black
and white and then chose the options
when picking a style ‘colour burn’.
This is my masthead on the
main image.
6. Before the effect
was added.
I then added a layer
style to the masthead
to make it stand out
more.
After the effect was
added.
7. Here I have added a
barcode to my college
magazine.
Here I have added a price Here I have
and a issue number. You made the price
cant really see it so I’ll add and then issue
an effect. number thicker
so its more
obvious to the
human eye.
