The document describes the process taken to design a magazine cover for a film. Key steps included choosing a purple puff graphic, adding covers and images at 84% opacity so they were not too dark, editing a male's outfit to have a black tee and blue blazer at 69% opacity, adding a blue strip for more color, enlarging the character to be more eye catching while adjusting the background text size, and positioning elements like removing text that covered the character's head to create the final cover design.

2. Puff I chose the puff because of an Empire magazine special issue. I used the circle tool then coloured it purple and added some text.

3. Blending for Puff I had the blending mode as Lighten so that it wasn’t too dark on my cover. I also set the opacity at 84% so it wasn’t too dark.

4. Collect both Covers I then added the other cover. I used the defunct picture of Sarah that I said was too grainy for a big cover. As this cover is small you can’t see the grainy cover.

5. Black Tee I then started to edit the male’s outfit so it was like the trailer. I made a quick selection of his tee and then put a black overlay on and set the blend option to overlay.

6. Blue Blazer I then quick selected his blazer and used the same blue I used on my poster. I made it 69% opaque so that the original material was still visible.

7. Blue Strip To add more colour to my cover, like my feedback suggested, I made the strip and barcode blue. It is the same blue as the blazer.

8. Enlarged Patience is a Virtue I decided an enlarged character would be more eye catching. I made the background text bigger to accommodate the bigger character. I also changed the barcode back to purple as it didn't suit blue.

9. Enlarged Character I then added the male to the cover. I made him bigger to fit the background text. I removed ‘a movie addict’s monthly dose’ so it didn’t cover any of the character’s head.
