The document describes the steps taken to design a contents page in Photoshop, including adding sections, images, and text. Key sections were created using shapes and the text tool. Images were featured along with corresponding page numbers. Logos and social media links were also inserted. The process involved duplicating layers and using consistent techniques to structure the various sections and elements of the contents page.
2. Firstly I opened a new page in Photoshop
and set up the right measurements
for the page.
I then made a duplicate of the first layer and
coloured in the page white with paint brush
tool I then added the grey are which is going
to be the strip.
3. I then added the issue number and
cover date to the strip.
Then I added my logo to
The strip, by placing the file in.
After that I added my contents text
with the text tool
My next step was to create a shape that I
could put my first sub-title on…
My first sub-title was for the ‘NEWS’ section.
I then added my first set of
numbers using the text tool.
4. I then used
the same
techniques as
the
steps before
to create the
sub-section
that is for the
posters.
I repeated
the same
steps to
create the
subtitle
containing
the live
reviews
section.
This is also
how I created
the whats hot
section, the
features and
the top give
aways
section.
5. The next step I completed was to add
my main image that is featured on my
contents page of ‘Epileptic Daydream’ I
then added the page number of where
you can find the article on them.
I then repeated the
steps with a smaller less
important image that is
to be featured on the
page.
6. I then did the
same steps
again with
another image.
And repeated
the steps
again.
I then started to apply my next
sub section of the contents page
The ‘Editors Note’
7. I then placed
my image
onto the
Photoshop
document.
My next step
was to add in
the editors
quote of the
month.
After that I added in my editors
actual ‘note’ the text is just a
short insight, into how the editor
interacts with the reader
8. My next step was to design my subscription subtitled box. I did this by reciting
The same steps I had learnt from creating all of the previous sub-headed boxes.
9. This is my finished subscription box.
Next I added my ‘FOLLOW US’ sub titled box
Using the same steps as before.
I inserted my text next
My final step was to individually place in each
Logo for the Twitter, Instagram
And YouTube channel
