1. Experiments

2. Process
The tools I used to create this magnificent piece were the
mouse pointer to move the objects/images into the right
place, this was simple and easy to do however it did auto lock
on to different angles and shifting to the right or left when
trying to fit the image/objects in the place I wanted. I then
used the tool to crop out the images that are located on the
bottom of the page was the lasso tool. To crop the image with
the lasso tool, I went around the image and got rid of the
irreverent background. I used this tool because it simple let
me choose what parts I didn’t need/want. This helped save
time and patience by using the lasso tool.
I then used the blending option to change and adapt the text
to my wanting. I used this tool because it gave me multiple
tools to use on my text. This helped by saving time and
choosing the perfect style for my magazine. The process what
a bit delicate and time consuming as I had to edit every single
image to my liking. Therefore It would be great if there was a
easy text editor. I then decided to change the background to
an old type of setting to appeal to older audiences and
therefore make the target market more loose. I then decided
to give the text a bit of fabulous colouring and styling.
Therefore grabbing the customers/audiences attention,
therefore buying or interested in the fishing magazine.

3. Process
The tool I used to create the wonderful title was the
blending tool, this gave me great styles and lot to chose
from, however it was extremely confusing to understand
some tools and know what button does what. Therefore I
lost time because I was confused and dumbfounded to no
end. This resulted in less time putting detail and effort on
to other images and designs. I also used the mouse pointer
to move the objects/images into the right place, this was
simple and easy to do however it did auto lock on to
different angles and shifting to the right or left when trying
to fit the image/objects in the place I wanted. I then choose
and sci-fi background to appeal to people who like
spaceships or generally interested in sci-fi. I then appealed
to people who like fps by adding a character holding a gun.
This resulting in grabbing the attention of the
audience/costumers by appealing to what genre game they
like. The process was time consuming and was difficult to
understand what sort of design I was going to choose,
therefore I should of planned out straight away what I was
going to do and go from there.

4. Reflection
What elements of your experiments will you include in your final
product?
I will include the barcode and price tag to tell the audience what price the
magazine is and and the barcode is for scanning and paying for the item. I will
also include attention seeking backgrounds and grab the customer/audience.
The layout will be set similar as the title will be bold and stand out to the
audience. I will also keep the similar image layout resulting in the customer
being interested in what the magazine is appealing about. I will also add
similar styling and colour, to brighten the magazine and make it standout
more than the other magazines. I will then add similar designs such as fps
characters, because it’s the most popular genre and easy to understand.
Therefore resulting in widening the target market and making more
purchases for the product/magazine. I will also stay with appealing to older
audiences such as the game I want to talk about in the magazine is an 16,
resulting in adult themed content not suitable for people under 16.
