Sam Mackintosh created three designs for their magazine masthead before settling on a final design. The first design was too bland and boring. The second design stood out well but still did not stand out enough. The final design used overlapping colors, a big font, and the phrase "No Strings Attached" underneath to look professional while standing out, incorporating lessons from the previous designs.

How i created my mast head
The document describes the process the author went through to design their magazine masthead. Their first design was too plain and unedited. The second design had a bold font and color but lacked effects. For the final design, the author chose two overlapping colors, a big font, edited writing, and a subtitle. This combined elements from the previous designs into a polished, unique masthead that stood out and looked professional.
Front cover planning & development
The document discusses the development of a magazine front cover design. It includes:
- Experiments blurring and cutting out a model image in Photoshop and Word.
- Testing different background colors and gradients, ultimately choosing a light grey gradient.
- Refining the cut-out of the model to make it look neat and professional.
- Adding the magazine masthead and beginning to add cover lines and dates.
The designer shares iterations of the design and explains design choices and further improvements needed to make the front cover appealing and professional.
Magazine planning
The document outlines plans for a magazine, including using unisex colors like red, light blue, and green. Clean fonts are planned for professionalism, while "unclean" fonts could attract males. The cover story depends on the featured artist's gender. Images include the cover star and a competition sticker. Sample fonts were researched from dafont.com, chosen for modernity, professionalism, or linking to music. Mockups show initial and revised front covers, contents page, and double-page spread. A photo shoot plan and production schedule are also mentioned. Audience feedback on the mockups suggested changes like different front cover fonts, not showing the full star, and brighter page colors.

How to Brand Your Blog - Finding Your Visual Voice
The internet is a visual medium, in the same way television and magazines are. Beautiful looking blogs will attract more readers than those filled with messy layouts, unattractive photos and jarring colours. Here are a few tips to help you brand your blog with a consistent, pleasing visual style.
First Draft
The document describes the process of designing the cover of a fanzine magazine. The designer experimented with different fonts and layouts to create a punk aesthetic and make elements like cover lines prominent. This included using a stencil font enlarged and feathered to look handmade, and choosing a bold "Impact" font for cover lines against a brick wall background. The main cover image was edited by removing the model from the original background and adding a shadow to make the composite look realistic.

Recovered file 1
The document describes two experiments conducted for a magazine design project. The first experiment was for the front cover, which used mainly shapes and an abstract design. The author felt it lacked professionalism and did not draw attention to the text effectively. Colors were too bland and nothing stood out. The second experiment was a double-page spread with more color and a futuristic feel to show how shoes interact with modern life. Darkening the shoe silhouette helped focus on its form. The reflection indicates most elements of the first experiment will not be included, while aspects like positioning from the second experiment may be. Color is recognized as important for mood and professionalism.
Prnt scrns front page
Once I had opened Photoshop I placed my picture in the position I wanted it in. I then added the Masthead, Strapline.

I finally decided to add a website link underneath the masthead, most magazines have a website link somewhere on there front page, I chose to put it underneath my masthead because when the reader looks at the masthead they would then see the website.
Creating double paged spread
I began creating a double page spread for a magazine by starting with a Photoshop document laid out like two facing pages. I added the magazine logo and placed an image on one side with an interview-style article. I formatted the article with a script title, black and white image, bolded interview questions, and a teaser to grab readers. I continued building the article following conventions and moved the logo to improve visibility, finishing with page numbers.

Digital graphics pro forma
The document provides information about different types of digital graphics file formats including raster graphics, vector graphics, JPEG, TIFF, PSD, AI, 3DS.
Raster graphics use pixels and have a fixed resolution, so quality is lost when resizing. Vector graphics use paths and shapes so quality is maintained at different scales but files are larger.
JPEG is for photos and web, small files but quality degrades with edits. TIFF maintains quality but has large files. PSD saves layers and supports transparency but has large files only usable in Photoshop.
AI is for logos and can scale without pixelation but limited software support. 3DS is an industry standard 3D format with large files. The document
Digital Graphics pro forma (with improvements)
The document discusses different types of digital graphics, including raster graphics, vector graphics, and various file formats.
Raster graphics are made up of pixels arranged in a grid, with a fixed resolution. They can lose quality when resized. Vector graphics use paths defined by points, lines, and curves that can be resized without losing quality.
JPEG is best for photographs and websites due to its small file size but loses quality with multiple edits. TIFF maintains quality but has large file sizes. PSD saves layers and transparency but only works in Photoshop. AI is for logos and scalable images while 3DS is an industry standard format for 3D modeling.

The author created thumbnail sketches in Photoshop to generate design ideas for their final project. They solicited feedback from peers on the different styles. The author took the feedback and created more polished concepts in Illustrator, including a vectored helmet design. They added paint splatters and color corrections in Photoshop to give the helmet design a grungier look. Additional feedback from peers helped refine the design further by having text span the entire helmet visor. The author ultimately chose to develop the grungy helmet design more based on their enjoyment of the style and its relative complexity compared to other concepts.
Unit78 production log
Luke Summers completed several tasks for his Digital Graphics for Computer Games unit, including research, mind maps, character profiles, sketches, and draft illustrations. He created these using Microsoft Word, Bubbl.us, Photoshop and Adobe Illustrator. For his final product, Luke combined his character illustration with a nighttime cityscape background in Adobe Illustrator to depict his character atop a building.
Final cover changes [autosaved]
This document describes the process of creating a magazine cover across two drafts. In the first draft, the author experimented with background colors and gradients, positioned images, and worked on the masthead font. Plugs were added and repositioned until the final draft 1 was completed. In the second draft, the author made adjustments as stated in draft 1 and felt the results were more visually appealing and professional with a consistent color scheme and fonts.

Digital graphics evaluation pro forma
This document contains the responses to a graphic narrative evaluation for a children's book project. The responses discuss how the final product reflects the original intentions, how images were constructed, how text was used to anchor images, the suitability for the intended audience, likes and dislikes of techniques and the final product, inclusion of content, styles employed, and strengths and weaknesses of pre-production planning. Cultural and historical context as well as peer feedback are also addressed.
Evaluation question 7
The document summarizes the key differences between the student's preliminary magazine cover and contents page task, and their final products created in Adobe Photoshop. Some of the main differences discussed include using more appropriate fonts for the masthead versus body text, choosing a darker background color scheme, making the dominant image larger without overlays, and improving readability of the headline and contents text. The student reflects on lessons learned about design principles and layout from completing their first version in Microsoft Word.
Ideas and Planning
The document provides information and guidance for developing ideas for a client project. It includes sections for brainstorming ideas, evaluating which to develop further, creating mood boards and mockups to visualize ideas, and experimenting with logo, business card, and website designs. For the logo development, the creator analyzes different color palettes, fonts, and provides example images. The goal is to develop ideas that represent the client's brand and meet their needs.
Final reflective task
The document discusses several 3D models Declan Brophy created in Blender, including a backpack, gun, cardboard box, crate, ladder, and barrel. For each model, Declan describes the modeling techniques used, such as extrusion, bisecting meshes, and applying subdivision filters. He also discusses overcoming issues with extrusion modeling and joining objects by getting help from colleagues and researching solutions. Overall, Declan feels the models meet the requirements of the brief but that he could improve with more Blender experience.

Initial plans print rotation
Bronte Parsons plans to create a magazine as a class project. They have experience with Photoshop from previous projects and regularly practices Photoshop at home. However, they have no experience with Adobe InDesign. Bronte analyzed sample magazine covers and noticed repeated patterns, colors, styles and simple designs are commonly used. Bronte created a mood board and plans to use techniques like layered letters and images seen in the samples. Bronte outlined a schedule that includes initial research, production experiments, interviews, article writing, layout creation, and a final evaluation.

How i created my mast head
- 1. How I Created My MastHead By Sam Mackintosh
- 2. First Design This was my first design idea for my Masthead. Once completed I found this design was a bland and boring as it did not stand out enough.
- 3. Second Design This was my second idea for my Masthead. I thought the font I used for this design worked well as it stood out very well and also I believe the colour works well to attract people towards the magazine. However, the reason I did not use this design was because in my opinion it did not stand out enough.
- 4. Final Design This is my final design for my Masthead. The reason I chose this design was because I thought it stood out very well with the overlapping colours and the big font. As well, I thought by having “No Strings Attached” underneath the it made the title look professional. This final design has all the aspects of my other two designs.
