Front Cover Final

I chose this font for my mast head because I thought it had a perfect rock vibe about it and the colouring has eye-catching appeal. I took the image of Nick Jonas and incorporated my own information to show that Rockstar has an exclusive inside story about him. I added a barcode to make my cover seem realistic.

Final Double Page Spread

Front cover

This is the front cover of my Tudor High magazine. I have added a footer with a caption to attract the audience's attention. It says 'The best GCSEs EVER.' I have also added information about what can be found inside the magazine. I chose white font colour as I thought it stands out on the red background. I added some extra detail to the mast head to make it look more professional.

To make my front cover look more realistic and professional i added a date, issue and price which I think made it look brilliant!

Contents

I posed Mia infront of the bookcase with my contents page in mind. I did this because I thought it would be perfect to have her posing with her arm showing the contents of the magazine.

When we were erasing the background of the original picture we used the eraser tool but found that using the lasso tool allowed us to erase larger sections. We chose the colour golden yellow to compliment the red shades that I have used previously and selected the gold from Mia's tie.

We used the same font for the heading on the front cover and the contents page to create house style throughout my work.

Evaluation question 7

Looking back on your preliminary task, what do you feel you learnt in the procession from it to the full product?

In the procession from the preliminary task to the full product, I feel that I have a better grip on what photoshop is and how to use it. I also feel that I have gained a greater experience with media as a whole as a result of both the preliminary task and the full product. I know that rather than just taking a picture it is vital to remember certain things to really capture the image. Things such as positioning, how close I stand, costume, props, staging and many other things play a huge role in getting a great shot.

Evaluation question 6

What have you learnt about technologies from the process of construction this product?

I have learnt about photoshop and how to use it. I have learnt to blog about my progress in my media studies class. I understand that attention to detail really matters and making sure that there is uniform to my magazine that it will look professional and very appealing to my target audience.
