Construction
The document describes the process of creating a magazine cover design. It involved taking a photo of a brick wall for the background, converting it to grayscale, and selectively coloring some of the bricks. Images were edited and cut out in Photoshop before being arranged on the background in InDesign. Text size and placement took some adjustments to balance with the large background image. Multiple layers were used in InDesign to structure the overlapping images and text.
Print evaluation
The document summarizes the student's magazine design project. The student conducted research that helped with ideas generation and understanding effective magazine design. The intended audience was young people aged 8-16. Planning included experiments with layouts and icons. Production of the front cover took multiple days but the double page spread felt rushed. Technical challenges included page layout and font changes. The front cover design was unique but the double page spread was unsatisfactory and didn't meet the intended style.
Production Experiments
Jodie Wood conducted experiments to develop skills for creating magazine covers and double page spreads for her final product. For the covers, she edited over 100 photos in Photoshop and tried different fonts and color levels. She created three mock covers. For the double page spreads, she designed two layouts - a basic style with little color and a second with neutral colors and brighter photos. She edited photos in Photoshop, added text boxes, and arranged photos around the page. Her experiments helped her identify styles and techniques to include in her final product, such as photo editing, color schemes, and layouts that created a minimalist, professional look.
Indesign work and Photoshop-/ print
This document discusses the author's experience using InDesign and Photoshop software. For InDesign, the author created a double-page magazine spread about the film "Overdrive" including an overview, plot, and review. Images were added and text was wrapped around them. For Photoshop, a basic magazine cover design was made for a gaming magazine, featuring a split screen of PS4 and Xbox logos with an exploding "VS" in the middle to hint at the main article topic.
What have i learnt about technologies from the process of creating the product
Rachel Jones learned about the evolution of magazine publishing technologies through creating her own magazine. Previously, magazines required many employees in specialized roles like typesetting, but desktop publishing allows one person to take on roles like photographer, journalist, and designer. Desktop publishing is much faster than the old hot metal printing method, where each individual letter had to be separately cast for each print. This allows magazines to be produced more quickly and efficiently by smaller teams.
Fanzine process
This document discusses the process of creating a fanzine about architecture. It describes how the author designed each page, including the cover page featuring a red and white drawing representing architecture. For the introduction page, the author used minimal design with red text to match the cover. Photos were edited to enhance lighting. The contents page was handwritten and enhanced using Photoshop tools. Interviews were laid out using guidelines and spacing between text and images. Abstract drawings were given colorful backgrounds using Photoshop filters to blend the drawings together visually. The finished product featured cohesive design across pages achieved through photo and drawing editing in Photoshop.

History and origins
Hip hop originated in the 1970s in the Bronx, New York among African American and Latino communities. It is characterized by four elements - rapping, DJing, breaking, and graffiti. While initially focused in urban communities, hip hop has now spread globally and is popular among people from all backgrounds. The genre is rooted stylistically in Jamaican dancehall music and blends rhythmic rapping with instrumental beats. Key early innovators like Kool Herc popularized hip hop by hosting parties and spreading recordings within their communities.
Evaluation of photos
The author is considering different photos to use for their DPS on the hip hop genre. The first photo is good because the model shows attitude and it fits well with hip hop. The lighting and background work well. However, the second photo's facial expressions and body language do not relate well to hip hop. The third photo could work but the lighting is too much and the model's position is not exactly what was wanted, though it would not require much editing.

My media product uses some conventions of real magazines but also challenges some conventions. On the front cover, it includes a masthead with a unique font, cover lines that don't cross over the subject's face, and a discount splash. However, it only includes one subject image rather than multiple images. The contents page includes section headings and a range of small images rather than few large images. However, it does not include page numbers. Overall, the product challenges conventions in some ways to make the design more interesting, but could be strengthened by improving readability and appearance. The strengths include a clear layout and easy to read text, but weaknesses include a plain background and small uninteresting images. Photoshop was easier to use than

Construction of the magazine (evidence)
- 1. Construction of the magazine (Evidence) By Vickram Singh
- 2. For the front cover I had to crop the hat off and make it above the masthead title so that it can be behind it. This allowed me to make the magazine look more real like all the other magazine use. I got this idea when I was looking at examples of other magazines. I also had to download various fonts and install them on to Photoshop so could use them While I was constructing the magazine The magazine is nearly finished as I only got a few finishing touches left.
- 3. This is the construction process of my double page spread as you can see I had to crop the image aout of the original picture which was quite fun as I have never done this before.
- 4. This is the construction process of my contents page. This page I found the hardest to create and has the most less drafts because I didn’t really know what to do on my contents page even though there was many research conducted.
