Louis Dodds-Rodgers

2. Process
I began my magazine cover by taking a photo of me for the front cover and putting it into
photoshop, I made sure it was the right dimensions for my magazine before doing so. I tried
a few different poses and outfits to try and fit my magazines genre and ended with this as my
final product. Taking the pictures alone was difficult because I had to prop my phone on top
of a bicycle in my shed without it falling over.

3. Process
I then added the title of my magazine over the top of me to make it the main
feature, I downloaded a vogue type font online and then wrote my title once,
copied it and then flipped it upside down to create a mirrored effect which I
enjoyed doing because it looks more unique.

4. Process
After I made the main title I added a buzz image at the bottom of the
loubotons I decided to wear for the magazine cover to fit the audience
appeal, adding this is key in a magazine cover as it will grab the attention of
the reader.

5. Process
I then added a barcode onto the bottom of the magazine to give it a
more realistic effect

6. Process
Lastly I added some text and headings to give more insight to what the
magazine includes and what it is about to make it clear to the readers what
they are buying and reading.

7. Process
I then began my double page spread, to begin with I started by researching a general
Magazine’s dimensions for a double page spread. I then added two pages and a bleed line
In case of a misprint, this also adds aesthetic qualities to my magazine as it looks nicer.

8. Process
Next I added my centre image of A$AP because he is who my article is featured about.
I downloaded an image of him at a fashion shoot due to my magazine being about fashion,
I made sure I could find his clothes online and their prices so I could speak about them.

9. Process
I then added the title of the article which is also the name of the featured model and artist.
To do this I downloaded a royalty free font similar to one of his album covers and made the
colours
Fit the aesthetic of his outfit and my pages.
