Draft Magazine Cover.

I decided that I needed to do a mock up from cover so that I am not going into doing my final piece without any practice. I really enjoyed making this as it made me decide that I wanted to make a Christmas edition for my magazine. 

 I am using these colours for my final piece because I think that they bring out the Christmas theme, as red,green and white is all Christmas tones and colours you would relate to the festive season.

I took the images at Saltrum house and this is one of the images that I took.I changed the colours of the background to make them a little dimmer as they were very bright and they drowned out the writing too much.
After doing this I felt much more confident to be able to produce a good standard of work for my final piece.

I will create a film like poster which will need to catch peoples attention and make them want to watch the documentary- I want it to be informative about what the documentary i...

Draft double page spread

After finishing this I have decided that this is the idea that I want to use, I love the theme and the images but there is a lot to change and rearrange with trying to make it look like a proper magazine double page spread. If this was going to be my final piece I know that many things would have to be change such as- The spacing within the text doesn't look profession, it looks scruffy and mismatched. I would make it all square and equal. I would do this to produce a crisp and clear line between the text and the photos.  There no page numbers which would need to be on there as it would not be a proper double page spread- This would need to be added to my final pages.  I would make sure that all of the images looked as if they go together, I may even fade them into the background.
