• As Google is a search engine I was able to
quickly find information relevant to my work.

Magazine covers, contents, etc) from its image
section or access websites such as Empire to
search their cover archive. This would allow
me to find covers to analyse.

Photoshop. I used Photoshop to create basic
layout and mock versions to give myself a base to
work off.

printer to get a hard copy and finally a scanner to
upload it on my blog.
