Jack Scott reflects on the production process of creating an advertisement magazine for surfboards. He made a logo with random lines and dots to look like a pattern. Pictures of surfboards were taken at home and cut out on Photoshop with a wooden background added to look like they were for sale in a shop. Information on the magazine included Jack's surfing experiences and sources he found to strengthen the content. The front cover featured a surfer cut out from an online image merged with a wave and sunset since Jack lacked equipment to take his own photos.

2. Process
I started by making a logo for the advert on
my magazine so that it looks more like a
real company. I basically just did random
lines and dots so it makes a weird looking
pattern and it turned into the logo you can
see now. I made it white so it reflects off
the background and it made it look nice.
For the surfboards I took the pictures at
home and then cut them out on
Photoshop and added a wooden
background to them so they look like they
are in a shop ready to be sold. The white
board didn’t cut out very well as the wall
was white when I took the picture so when
I went to cut it, it merged with the
background and went out of shape. The
prices are just ordinary and don’t have
much value to them but it still makes it
look better for an advert.

3. Process
For the information I decided to go for
white writing with a light blue background
so that they both contrast with each other
and it is easy to read. The font I used is
making the words lighter and more thin so
it looks more presentable when you are
reading it. The information on the
magazine is either my experience when I
was learning to surf or some information I
have found from sources to help
strengthen my information. The way I
presented the paragraph was so that it
looks different to normal text as it is jagged
on the sides.

4. Process
For my front cover I cut out a surfer from a
image I found on the internet. This is
because their wasn’t any swell and I don’t
have any equipment to take photos of
waves so I had to make my own front cover
using photos that are already made and
just merge them together. I went for a
white border which contrasts with the
heavy colours of the wave and sunset. This
is done so you can see the picture better.
The writing is very clear so you can easily
read what it is saying on the front cover. I
enjoy the outcome of my front cover
because it is simple but good looking.
