Producing the magazine

Below I will be documenting the process of our magazine, it was a very long process but we managed to do it all in the end:

The first step was to choose our photograph and use the quick selection tool to select the image and remove it from the unwanted background.

Before placing the image we first had to choose the background that we wanted. We chose a brick background in order to give it a rough feel. We then edited the background with a cartoon, artistic feel similar to the ones seen on Little White Lies. We also added an effect to the image of Tommy before we placed it onto the background.

 

We then placed the image onto the background and cropped it into place.

We then added the title 'Motion.' We used the effects button in order to play around with the drop shadow and outer glow of the text.

We added in the bar-code and circle design similarly to the Little White Lies using the shape tool. Then we made the text smaller so that they could fit together.

We then added in the rest of the text making sure to stick to magazine conventions that we have already looked at.

We did a sight test of the magazine to see if all the text was distinguishable from far away. We realised that it wasn't so we had to change the colour of the text. we also changed the size of the bar-code as it was far too large in comparison to the magazine title, causing it to take attention away from it.
