I then resized the image to make sure that the image was
large enough and there wasn’t too much of the background
showing. I held shift while I resized this so that I could make the
Image larger without it going blurry.

Then I made the text bigger so that it would fit
across more of the page.

I then added more text to the page. I put the positioning statement
under the masthead as that is where it is usually located
on a magazine front cover.

I made the title of my magazine look like this to make it
more interesting. I did not want to have a title that was
in a line at the top of the page.

I then added my coverlines onto the page along with the
main coverline being slightly bigger than the rest of the text.

I added exclusive story in a circle by using the shape
tool and the text tool. I put the text on an angle after
I had resized it. The circle is white because that is
one of the colours I have chosen for my colour
scheme. The term exclusive story shows readers that
there is information in this magazine that no one
else has.

I changed the way the masthead on my magazine
looked to make it stand out more. I put a block of
red colour behind it as red is one of the three
colours in my chosen colour scheme. The positioning
statement was made white to stand out against the
dark background.

I moved this circle to the top right corner of the page. I
made it a little bit bigger and made the text inside of it bold.
My main coverline tells the reader about an artist called Jake
so I decided to put his name in this section so that people
knew exactly who the exclusive story was about.
12. 07/04/14
I made my coverlines easier to read by putting the
information about the story on a separate line and
spreading them out. This makes it more aesthetically
pleasing for the reader.
13. 07/04/14
I put a red background behind the main coverline. This
clearly shows that this is the main story in my magazine.
The main coverline was a bigger font than the rest of the
coverlines and I made them all bold so they would be
easier to read.

At the bottom of the page I put a white box and wrote ‘This weeks
top 10’. This was one of my coverlines but I researched some Indie
music magazines and found out that most of them have a strip at
the top or bottom of the page so I decided to make this regular
article in this strip.
