2. Initially I went to the paint
tool and altered the colour of
the background from white to
purple. This colour suits the
theme of my magazine.
I then inserted an image that is a
medium long shot, which the
student provided direct address for
my magazine. I also used the
cropping tool to change the sides of
the image to stand out and fit my
magazine.
3. In addition I then used the
text tool to write down
the masthead of my
magazine, by using the
right font size and font
type, which is suitable for
my magazine.
Moreover, I used the text tool to
write the name of the student for
my magazine and the main
coverline; in capital letters for it to
be striking.

After that I placed a positioning
statement by using the text tool. I
highlighted the font and made it extra
small which would make the masthead
the centre of attention.
Shortly after, I added 2 coverlines and
highlighted them to change
colours/font/font type and used the
shape tool to get a line to use under
the masthead to make it stand out a b
it more also the make it look
professional.
5. I then again used the shape tool to
make a circle and changed the colour
to be black to make the font I will be
placing to stick out.
I added a buzzword along side the
rest of the writing, this use of a
buzzword may grab the audiences
attention. Also I made the text in all
capitals to completely grasp the
readers attention which could make
them want to read this magazine.
6. Furthermore I added a text
on the facial expression that
my student was making, to
emphasis the message I was
trying to get across.
I inserted a barcode image and
resized it to fit my magazine and
placed on the right bottom corner, I
added a barcode to make the
magazine more realistic. I also
added the date of when the
magazine is released under the
masthead and made it have a small.
font.
7. I added all the information that
follows the barcode such as the
date, issue number and the
website. Made the text in small
font the lessen the attraction to
that area of the magazine.
Lastly, I used the brightness tool
to the image and contrasted it to
be a bit more clear for the
audience to see it, and it made
the magazine come together
overall.
