Text is one of the most important aspects of a magazine, my magazine uses two different fonts, 'Berlin Sans' and 'Bookman Old Style'. The above picture is of the text on my front cover, I have used different sizes, styles and effects to make the cover different and more interesting. I have keept to three colours, red, black and white. The reason for this is because I want my magazine to have the same theme throughout to make it look more proffesional.
For my Medium Close Up picture, I took a picture of my friend. When I imported the picture onto photoshop I used the Select tool to cut my friend out and paste him onto a plain white A4 background.
I placed my masthead on the top right corner of the page as this is where the eye is first drawn to when people read magazines or website pages. I made the opacity of the layer a bit lower, but not as much as other layers because I wanted my Masthead to stand out.
After I had added all my content onto the front cover, I believe it looked too plain so I decided to add some coloured lines which would be repeated through out the magazine to make it look fuller and stand out more. I believe it goes well with the whole of my front cover because it looks fun and modern. To make these, I simply added boxes, changed the colours, but because the colours were to bright I changed the opacity of the boxes to make them a softer colour.
