Pre Production
The document provides information and inspiration for pre-production of a music magazine, including influential magazine covers, mood boards, early name ideas, and masthead designs. It discusses taking inspiration from covers featuring simple designs, sophisticated poses and text styles. Neutral colors on covers suggest a focus on non-mainstream music. A quirky, unique masthead promotes an indie focus. The document also discusses the magazine's unique selling point of focusing on unsigned, non-mainstream artists and cultivating a sense of community with readers.
Audience Feedback
The survey results showed that the magazine appealed to its target audience of teenagers and young adults aged 15-25. Most respondents thought the photography and design were the best features, and found the £2.50 price reasonable. Two-thirds said they would buy the magazine, though some commented it did not appeal to men. The layout received some criticism, with suggestions to change the double page spread font color. Respondents identified the magazine's main competitor as Q magazine and expected it to be sold primarily in newsagents. Most correctly identified the genre as indie or rock.
Mva
The black and white music video establishes a mysterious atmosphere as it contrasts exterior shots of a bus with well-lit interior shots of the band performing. Both performance and narrative elements are featured, with close-ups showing the band performing on the bus and a woman's journey from being upset on the road to boarding the bus. The dark color palette and mysterious cityscape shots reinforce the band's image and genre of the song.

Think about EVERYTHING you have done in / learned about using Photoshop
provide proof via before and after pics if you have them or by slideshows as some students have already created.

Use your print screens you have used in your planning and research and talk about the tools you used.

Front Covers
The cover has an indie/scrapbook feel with a black and white image of the band. The bright pink text for the lead article stands out against this backdrop. The typefaces used for the magazine name and additional text were designed to look handwritten, adding to the scrapbook aesthetic.

Observability Concepts EVERY Developer Should Know -- DeveloperWeek Europe.pdf
Monitoring and observability aren’t traditionally found in software curriculums and many of us cobble this knowledge together from whatever vendor or ecosystem we were first introduced to and whatever is a part of your current company’s observability stack.
While the dev and ops silo continues to crumble….many organizations still relegate monitoring & observability as the purview of ops, infra and SRE teams. This is a mistake - achieving a highly observable system requires collaboration up and down the stack.
I, a former op, would like to extend an invitation to all application developers to join the observability party will share these foundational concepts to build on:

Best 20 SEO Techniques To Improve Website Visibility In SERP
Frontpagestepbystep
- 1. Front Cover
- 2. I started off with the above photo. I liked the way the colours from the image stood out against the black background and decided I wanted to keep it like this on the front cover. Therefore I created an A4 canvas and using the fill tool filled it black.
- 3. Using dafont.com to find an appropriate font I print screened it and copied it onto Photoshop. I then used the magic wand tool to select the text so I could colour it before putting it on the front cover.
- 4. I followed the same steps as I did previously to add a tagline to the front cover. Next I went onto Google and found an image of a barcode that I could use on my magazine. I cut it out on Photoshop using the select tool and then pasted it onto the front cover. I didn’t like the way the barcode looked on its own so I added a small dark blue box behind it so it fitted in with the rest of the cover a little better. I changed the opacity to 23% because it looked to bright at 100% and it made the barcode stand out too much.
- 5. Using the same steps as I have done previously to add text I added the artists name to the magazine. I positioned them so that they weren’t in a straight line as I wanted to add some visual differences to the cover. I decided that the font for ‘Steff and Zoe’ should be different from the font for ‘Mutual Friends’ because it would add some detail to the cover as if everything was in the same font it would look plain. I found a calligraphy font on dafont.com and using the same steps as I have done previously I copied it onto the magazine.
- 6. For the pull quote I used the same font ‘Justus’ but added a bevel and emboss effect to it to make it stand out from the ‘Mutual Friends’ text. To add this effect I double clicked on the layer and selected the bevel and emboss style option.
- 7. To add the skyline and the line at the bottom I print screened them from dafont.com and using the magic wand tool in Photoshop I cut them out before using the paintbrush function to change it white so that it would be visible on the magazine. Using dafont.com, the print screen function and the Photoshop magic wand tool I added text to right hand side of the cover. For the ‘+plus’ title I added a bevel and emboss effect, like I did to ‘Steff and Zoe’ previously, by double clicking on the layer and selecting the bevel and emboss style option.
- 8. Finally I added dark blue boxes, the same as the one I used behind the barcode, behind the text advertising new bands and artists on twitter. The boxes introduces a hint of a new colour to the cover and make the white font stand out better than it does against the plain black background. I also added text informing readers of the issue and price beside the barcode.
