2. I started off with just my image, I cropped and resized it to the shape of my front cover. I decided it looked good with out and editing.
3. I decided on a title and used one of the fonts that Photoshop have, I added an effect to the text to make it stand out. After researching other real magazines I came up with the idea of the design and information at the bottom of the cover.
4. I came up with a band name, and from my double page spread article I took a quote that I thought would stand out and look good on the front cover.
5. I added more information signifiers using a simple font, and sticking to the colour scheme.
6. I added a bar code and put a small layer underneath to broaden it, I also added the price and date under the title and on the bar code
12. To start off my contents page, I sized up the page to the appropriate measurements and decided on where my text and picture would go.
13. I added my contents title keeping to the same font, I added an effect of an outline on the to the contents title to make it stand out. I decided on my contents photo, and I resized it to fit the layer I had set out for it to fit, again I did not edit this photo. I inserted to layers, one for the text title and one for the page number of the image at the bottom of the page.
14. I decided on what would be in my magazine, and so added these into my contents to which page they would be on, I added a title for the story then underneath I described what the story was on. I decided that the title to go in the white box layer would be ‘features’. I wrote about what my main story was about, this was what the big picture is advertising.
15. To finish off I added a page number at the bottom and tidied up my spelling and positioning of things.
22. I chose my picture for my double page spread and resized it to the correct size of my double page spread page. I also edited the photo my increasing the saturation to make the image sharper.
23. I chose what my title would be and wrote it out in capitals and then chose the colours according to the background setting. I used the quote I used on the front cover, and added an effect to it to bring it off the page, I then got the idea to place it in the window of the background, because I thought it looked nice and worked well.
24. I added the text that I had previously written out especially for my double page spread.
25. To finish off I added the page numbers with a small logo to give my magazine individuality. I added the by-line, naming the person who took the photos and who did the writing. I made up the name for one the writer.
