This document summarizes the process of designing the front cover of a magazine in Adobe Photoshop. The designer began by creating a background inspired by other hip hop magazines, alternating artist names in shades of grey. An initial central image was tested but replaced with a more suitable close-up photo of an artist in typical hip hop attire not directly facing the camera. A masthead, slogan, headline, and cover lines were added following a gold, blue, and white color scheme. Barcode, issue number, and date were added last to complete the professional look of the final front cover design.
