Process of magazine jaye
1. In order to begin I opened Photoshop and then a new page using international paper. After
that I opened the image I was going to use as the main image for my magazine front cover.
Using the quick select tool I selected the background as it didn’t want to use it.
2. I didn’t continue with the photograph and changed it with
another photograph instead because it would’ve been hard to
crop the background as hair is spread and I preferred this
photograph as she is pouting it presents a teenage behavior.
Again I didn’t want to use the background therefore I used the polygon lasso tool to
crop out the background. After I cropped the background, I cropped the background
that was present inside were the arm is placed on her hips.
3. I first zoomed in into the
section I was going to crop,
selected the polygon lasso
tool and went around areas I
wanted to remove by pressing
delete key on the keyboard.
4. I chose my font from 101 fonts
online, saved it and then
opened it on Photoshop to
remove the background. I
used the background eraser
tool to do this.
5. After that, I put together the font
with the magazine name. I thought
that the ‘Y’ was far away from ‘A’
so I made copies of the full word
and cropped the word keeping the
letter ‘Y’ and after that put them
together. I also inserted the a
triangle symbolizing ‘play’. As
shown on the right, I added colour
to each item and then reversed
the colours.
I then placed it on the magazine page. I resized it
(as shown on the right) and placed the main
image forward so that it is in front of the
masthead. I also added the skyline and fitted it
to the space.
6. I then, changed the colour of
the skyline. I added the issue
no inside the letter ‘R’
vertically. I inserted a barcode
at the bottom right corner and
above I placed the issue date
and above that the price of
the magazine. I made those
texts into a golden yellow
colour.
7. I started over again as I didn’t
like the font and the colour
scheme. I used the same
photograph but opened a
different international paper. I
resized the image
appropriately.
8. I chose a different font this time using Dafont.com online and saved it. On Photoshop I
opened the image, zoomed into the areas and cropped the background using
background eraser tool. After I removed the background I moved it onto the magazine
page.
9. Going through the same process I inserted a
triangle symbolizing ‘play’, behind the text ‘Replay’. I
made the colour of the triangle red and left the text
in black.
I resize the triangle
making it bigger and
then as shown on the
right I changed the
colour into illuminous
yellow and then
resized the text to fit
on the triangle.
10. Focusing on the main image, I
noticed there were hair marks
appearing on her top, which
destroyed the professional look of
the image. In order to improve
the image I used clone stamp tool
to replace the hair stains with the
tops original colour. An example
of where the stain is present is on
the right
11. I noticed there were some
background left so using the
polygon lasso tool I cropped the
background.
12. After changing the colour of the triangle, I changed the colour of
the text into a pinky purple colour- as bright colours are
conventional to pop. I resized the shape to fit the masthead
section and the text to fit in with the triangle and the masthead
section. I positioned the main image in front of the masthead as it
looks more effective and 3D.
13. I added a skyline , made it fit into the skyline
section and then changed the text colour into
dark red. As shown on the top right hand
corner, I have added the barcode at the
bottom right corner.
14. I began to add more of the magazine conventions. At this
stage I added the issue date and issue no. I changed both
of the texts colour and the size and then positioned below
the masthead on the left. On the right is where I added
the first feature story of the magazine and then I changed
the colour from black to a dark red.
15. “MINE!”
For the main feature I was looking for a font that would be suitable on the internet
and on PowerPoint and there were a few fonts I liked; however, I preferred to use a
different font that I figured out on Photoshop.
16. I opened a different page and
made the main feature story
text by using a pull quote. I
tried two different fonts each
with separate colours. For one
of them I removed the
background of the text using
the background eraser tool and
then tried both texts where I
wanted to position the texts. I
came to a decision that I
preferred the one shown on the
left. After deciding on the one I
preferred I put the text on a
slant.
17. After deciding on the font, colour and
size I used the ellipse tool to create the
plug of the magazine.
I then changed the colour of the plug from dark red to the same colour as the triangle that’s part of the
masthead. By double clicking on the layer I added an outer glow and changed the colour and size.
After that I added text to it. I changed the font of the text, the
colour into a brighter colour, the size of it and slanted it to the
left.
18. I added text again for the plug: changed the colour and size. I
clicked on the layer and added glow to it and adjusted the
colour and size of the glow. I used different tools as shown
above.
19. I entered another text to go into the plug and edited the text by
double clicking on the layer and made it the same colour as the
word ‘FREE’ to show a pattern with in the plug. I then added
another final text ‘2014’ following the colour and format within
the plug. I added shadows and changed fonts to make it look
attractive.
20. I clicked on the layer to make differences in the appearance to
make it more appealing and attractive. As shown above I have
used elements from the inner and outer glow. I used contour
from the outer glow to make the main feature story 3D and
different from the rest of the magazine. I also added noise to the
outline of the text which makes it more appealing to the
audience. For each element I changed the colour at an
appropriate extent.
21. I edited the text focusing on the fuzzy outline of the main feature
story in attempt to make the level of the outline appropriate and
not exaggerate too much.
22. On the left is the final decision I made on the fuzziness of the
outline of the text.
On the right, I have added the price of the magazine just beside
the barcode on the left. I have changed the colour in order to
keep the continuity of the colour scheme of the magazine. i
resized the text to make it suitable on the page where it is more
likely to be seen as the barcode and the price relate.
23. As part of the main feature story I added another text to
show who is behind the pull quote as the main feature
story. I tried the text in different sizes and positions ; and,
eventually decided on the position and size of the text.
The colour choice is based upon the main image as her
costume is black they link. It connotes that the main
image is the text. I made the outline of the text as white
for it to stand out.
24. I added a rectangle to place behind the skyline in order
for it to stand out as a skyline. I made the colour red as it
is a convention to use bright energetic colours as part of
pop magazine. I also changed the tone of the colour of
the triangle into a brighter colour and the inside colour
of the plug.
25. Looking at the version so far I
noticed there was a reflection on
her glasses; therefore, I used clone
stamp tool to remove the reflection
on her glasses replacing it with her
skin. On the right is the result after
the use of the clone stamp tool.
I also added a rectangle for it to go
behind the first feature story and
made the colour a convention of
pop.
26. I then added another feature story and changed the
colour, size and font of the text. I added another text as
part of this feature story for it to go in-between the two
lines. I made the colour and size different for it to be
suitable on the magazine.
27. I added two other text to form another
feature story; and, changed the inner and
outer colour of the text. I used bright colours
continuously as it is one of the main pop
conventions.
After creating the look of the text I
positioned it around the magazine page to
see where it best looks. I decided to locate it
on the right hand size just below the plug.
28. I then added a secondary image
after I finished editing it on
Photoshop I removed the
background of the image and then
moved it onto the magazine. I placed
above the main feature story on the
left. I added a boarder to it and then
added the text to go with the
secondary image. I changed the
colour and font of it suitable to the
image and the front cover magazine.
29. I then added a background colour to the
magazine so that it looks more attracting.
However, trying yellow wasn’t a great idea as
it made the triangle invisible. Therefore; I
changed it back into white.
30. I tried different colours to use a as the background, one
of the colours I tried was soft blue colour; and, it was
far better than the yellow as it well presented
everything. However, I changed one of the feature
story colour as it didn’t work with the background
colour. Instead I changed the outline colour of the text
which made it clearly visible. I preferred the colour
scheme shown on the bottom right.
To the bottom left side I added a Facebook icon but
changed the overlay type from normal into a blending
mode to remove the white background- because I got it
from the internet there was a white background and I
didn’t want the background. The reason I added
Facebook icon was because as my target audience are
teenagers they are more into social media; therefore, it
31. I then added more
of the social media
icons as they make
it more appealing
towards my target
audience.
In order to make the accessibility easy I
made a QR scan code (with the link to
the college website) and placed it next
to the Instagram icon.
I added a sell line beside the main
feature story, in a different colour from
the main feature story. The text
‘SUBSCRIBE NOW!’, I did ‘SUBSCRIBE’
and ‘NOW!’ separately in order to
position the texts underneath and in
size of each other.
32. HAND MARK CHANGED BY CLONE
TOOL
After completing the
previous stage I notice a
mark on where her hair
is. Using the colour
select tool I coloured in
the mark replacing it
with the colour of the
hair.
33. I added another feature story below the
previous feature story on the right. I
changed the colour, layout and size of
the text as well as adding an outline.
Beneath the text I added another text as
it is part of the feature story text. I did
the reverse of what I did on the text
above and made the size fit the above
text using the same font.
34. On the left, I added another feature
story ‘TOP 20’ and changed the size,
font and colour of it. I added an
outline to make it stand out when
looking at the magazine.
As footer, I added a sell line feature to
gain the attention of the audience of
those that are interested in entering
competitions. I used a different font
to present it. For each text I used the
reverse as I did the texts separately.
The colours I used where the same
but I reverse ways as shown on the
right
36. Going back to the main feature story I
edited the fuzziness of the outline in
order the increase the size and
thickness. I used both inner shadow
and outer glow within them I used a
mixture of element to contour the
text layer as shown above and the
right.
39. I made the frequency of the
noise more and then tried it
with less noise. I decided that I
preferred the noise to be less
frequent-as shown on the right.
40. On the left, I have noticed noise marks that have
spread across the bottom of the page; therefore,
using the clone stamp tool I removed them with the
background colour. As shown on the right I have
removed the marks.
42. Changes
This version on the left is the
previous version of the front
cover. Below is the changes I
have made. I selected the
secondary image and resized
the image positioning it outside
of the box.
Here, I selected both layers, the
photograph and the shape, and
rotated it to the left.
43. Here, I inserted another
secondary image and rotated it
to the right.
I opened the secondary image
on a different page and then I
dragged across the same shape
I used as the background of the
first secondary image. I
enlarged the photograph so
that the arms and the head are
out of the background shape.
Thereafter, using the rubber
tool I rubbed the bottom of the
photograph in order to fit in
within the background shape.
44. I then thought the colour I used
didn’t match the photograph
inside the shape and therefore I
changed the colour into a
similar tone as her top.
I then selected both layers and
dragged it across onto the
contents page and resized it
according to the first secondary
image.
45. I then thought the colour I used
didn’t match the photograph
inside the shape and therefore I
changed the colour into a
similar tone as her top. I then
resized the image into the
length of the text in front of the
image.
Looking back at the front cover I
realized that having two separate
images of two different people for
the same feature story isn’t
suitable. Therefore, I opened
another image on Photoshop.
After opening the image on
Photoshop I cropped the image
and then using levels, brightness
and contrast I altered the
photograph which gave a better
quality to the image.
46. Further changes
Here, after manipulating the
images, I removed the background
of the image and then zoomed into
the image and removed the left
over backgrounds. I used the clone
tool to make the image look neater
and softer. I then inserted the same
background shape as the
secondary images background on
to this page and then resized the
photograph and the shape. I then
noticed some more background
pieces that remained, so I used the
eraser tool and removed them.
This is the version after the
removal of the background.
47. I then zoomed into a section of
the image in order to remove
parts of the remaining
background. I used the polygon
lasso tool and the eraser tool
the make it accurate and
perfect.
I then placed the shape behind
the photograph in front, in
order to remove the bottom
section of the photograph that
goes outiside of the shape. Io
used the polygon lasso tool
and selected around the space
and then deleted the image.
48. After that I placed the shape
behind the photograph and
changed the colour of the
shape into pink but a lighter
tone of pink as it matches the
top in the photograph.
Afterwards, I dragged the layers
onto the contents page and
then resized it to match image
beside it to create the sense of
before and after her shyness. I
placed the second secondary
image in front of the first one in
order to show the updated.
49. I then removed the text on top of
the two secondary images with a
different text. I removed the text
because it mentions two different
girls and as they’re no longer the
same keeping the same text would
be inappropriate. I couldn’t edit the
existing text as it wasn’t editable
any longer, therefore, I added a
new text layer and removed the
other one. I used drop shadow and
selected a light pink colour and
then adjusted the levels of the
effect. I positioned it just below the
images so that it shows the link
between the images and the text.
Here I added another text just
beside the previous text. I double
clicked on the layer and then added
the stroke effect to make it stand
out and appealing. I then resized
the text smaller than the previous
one. I then used the (set the
leading) tool and shortened the
space between the texts and fitted
it within the length of the larger
text.
50. I then added another text and
then I filled the text into a pink
colour which is same as the
main feature story. After that I
added the stroke effect for it to
stand out from the rest of the
text. I used purple as the
stroke and made the level of
the stroke appropriate.
I resized the text and the
previous text to fit them
appropriately together.
51. This is the final version of the
front cover so far.
52. This is the final look
of the front cover.
Final
53. Here after the previous version I
realized the secondary images were
overlapping the feature story; so, I
resized the image and moved the
feature story upwards slightly
54. This is the final version of the
magazine front cover.
55. I opened the file again on
photoshop and made more
changes to the look of the
front cover. I enlarged the
main image and made it
overlap the masthead.
56. I then changed the fill
colour of one of the
feature stories into
brown.
57. I added a rectangular
shape to place behind the
‘SUBSCRIBE NOW’ and
filled it in yellow in order
to make it look more
attracting and
conventional. I also added
another shape to place
behind a section of the
skyline to make the text
stand out and again make
it look conventional. I also
changed the colour of the
text into the colour of
Jaye’s lip stick as when I
placed the shape behind it
because it was difficult to
see.
58. After placing it, I
realized it didn’t look
suitable so I used the
warp mode and moved
the points to adjust the
shape and fit it into
position.
59. I continued to use the
warp mode and
neatened the shape.
60. I faced an issue where
the previous edit
deleted by itself which
meant that I had to
restart the process
which I did. I went
through the same
process. This time the
shape I placed for a
section of the skyline
looked better than the
previous version.
61. But I changed it into the
previous version using
warp mode.
62. I added the rectangular
shape onto the text
‘SUBSCRIBE NOW’ again
as it removed the layer
previously and changed
the colour into yellow.
