2. The first Step planning and taking the photo
I first made the plan as a simple character that I
drew in photoshop and added some text around the
image. Then I decided to start and do a comic
magazine and then finished the planning as a comic
magazine as it was hard to find an image of an
airsofter. I then went home and took a snapshot of a
video that I took with a gopro at ground zero airsoft
site.

4. Step 2
I then took the screenshot and photshoped it so the
background is blurred out to make the front and
main objects stand out. I then made a couple other
changed to make the picture look better by adding
different brightness and such other effects. I then
cropped it to the page size and then added it to the
page. The logo was made before just with some
simple text and some other objects to make a curve
at the bottom.

6. Step 3
I then placed the image on the 600x800 page and
started to place it all together. Next I added the
information about most of the contents inside to add
more insight into the magazine, this went well
because I used different colours and text and I made
it go around the persons body so that it syncs into
the image perfectly. This was one of the hardest bits
because I had to do most typing and had to find out a
lot of information about the topics. I chose the
colours because they stood out the most and they
looked the best and they also fitted the colour
scheme.

8. Step 4
For step 4 I needed to make some more space I saw
on some other magazines some flags and then it
came to me that I need to have something about the
best force in the world that resembles England the
S.A.S I then wrote a couple words about them. I then
added some different text and made it tilt a bit to
make it stand out I then added some key words in
some different colours to make them stand out. Also
I could make the flag behind the person because it
was a different object which made it stand out a lot
more and made it look a lot more ‘snazzy’.

10. Step 5
At this stage I then added a couple extras like the
price and a couple pop ups anything that could really
take up space that was relevant to the situation.
Added a couple of situations that I felt would happen
and then hey presto I was done!
