Lesson 9th October (Final lesson)

In this lesson the deadline for the front cover and insert page was today so me and my partner had to work quickly. So firstly we set about adding the obvious details such as adding the price and issue number underneath the masthead as that is where the costumers are attracted to straight away so they can easily get the information that they need to buy the magazine. Underneath we put the mode of address written in yellow to make it look like it had been highlighted, so the reader will think that it is important and it more eye catching. On the other side of the page we put the main cover line in yellow bold letters with a drop shadow effect, which was related to the main cover image, to highlight its importance and also under that we put more cover lines.
Across the bottom of the page we put a banner which was half red and half white because the words were written against a two different colours that was part of the background so we did that to not make it clash . In the corner we put the barcode and the issue date as they are often grouped together and above that we added a picture of Alicia Keys which we had rounded and added a cover line for it and then we moved on to the insert page.

We wanted to make the background of the contents page similar to front page so we kept the same black background, mirrored the rainbow and contrast the colours so they were yellow, grey and green. We kept the font the same and wrote the contents and the heading in white. Finally to finish we added a image of Nicole Scherzinger, which we had already cut out of picture using the the magic wand tool, at the bottom in overlaying the gap between the words and the numbers as it was linked to the banner on the front cover. Afterwards we printed the pages but we noticed that the main cover line had come out see through so we decided that we needed to print again to correct the problem the next lesson
