2. Selection of my
photographs
The reason why I am chose to take
pictures of the Boleyn Ground is because
my article is about going to different
football grounds and interviewing
football fans from football clubs based in
London. One of my chosen football
grounds is Upton Park and so that is why I
chose to take a pictures of the famous
footballing ground.The football ground is
quite close to where I live (east London)
and I have no travel problems to get
there.
3. Sourcing and
importing
I decided to create the layout of my
magazine/article on InDesign as it thought
that technically it was the better option for
me as it is simple and I have the basic skills
to try to cope with the software. I got taught
how to use InDesign a while back so I
managed to do everything that I was looking
to do e.g. the layout and the design of my
article. I opted not to use Photoshop
because it is more complicated as its not
easy to get around the software as most of
the tools are not easy to use.

phone to my email

5. Experiments on InDesign
Blank template Layout of my page
The first picture shows a complete blank template of what I started off with to create my page layout. As you can see on the right hand side
that there is a more developed template which is full of writing and images of one of the places (Upton Park) where am I going to go to
interview football fans for my article. So for the layout of my page as usual I am going to have my title at the top of the first page, headline
under the title but right above the article that am I going to wright.Then on the right hand side of the second page I am going to have my
image(s) of the fans/ football ground (depends which football ground I visit). My design is going to have a colourful touch to it as I don’t
want it to be dull and boring. As InDesign was new to me, it took me a while to figure out how to use it but I eventually got the hang of it. I
learnt how to typography and other techniques such as place which is way of pasting the image into the template. Moreover, I learnt how
to select, rotate and size objects and how to use the type tool to edit text and create frames with or without borders, switching tools using
the keyboard, and navigating with the hand and zoom tools.
6. Evidence of my final piece
My final article
I saved my work in the journalism file
and named it ‘the layout of my
magazine’
