This is my school magazine cover that I have created in today’s lesson, I was made to start again after a problem logging in with the apple macs. I am happy with the overall result especially as I am still fairly new to photoshop. Looking back to my mock up that I made before starting, there are a lot of similarities, I have used the same title and layout of the title I originally planned and the same straplines. Things I have changed are the image of the party popper in the bottom, right hand corner, due to no access of the Internet and not taking an original photo of it. I also decided to use a banner going across the page with my kicker on, just because it added more emphasis to the text and added to the magazines theme of celebration.
To improve my magazine front cover more, I would have spent more time experimenting with colours, shapes and fonts to make my magazine cover look more unique and professional. I don’t like the white colour I have used for my straplines, as they are difficult to read against the pale background. Another specific way I would have improved it is by trying to make the outline of the picture neater, and less jagged, I think this is one of the reasons why my magazine does not look as professional as it could.
This is my contents page to go with the front cover for the sixth form magazine. My favourite part of this is the image, I feel it is the most interesting part of the page and the people look happy and inviting. To show a relation between my contents and front page I have used the same blue colour as the background, same font and colour scheme. I think this can be much improved, I has to complete it in a very small time period. The page looks very bare and simple, and i would improve it by adding more text and interesting features to the page, such as auto shapes and perhaps a few more pictures.
