Creating my Front Page
- 1. Creating my Front Page By Evie Theodore
- 2. After creating my plan I began to prepare to make my front cover. When I had finished with my Photoshoot stage, I realized that I had slightly gone against my Photoshoot plan (see blog) in order to get a better image. For example in one of my ideas on my Photoshoot plan table, I was going to have the model sitting on a bean bag with a book covering half her face/ However I found this pose more fun and engaging with the target audience of school children as it relates to the school life theme with the uniform and the geek glasses gives a sense of academics. I also slightly changed some aspects of my front cover in order to achieve a better result.
- 3. I did not include the official school logo but instead added a stain glass version of it at the bottom of my front cover instead. I chose not to include the barcode or the price as it wouldn’t be appropriate for a school based magazine which is free. Things I changed Instead of having the Masthead and the Main Image separate I made my main image overlap the Masthead to make it look more like fashion magazines I researched such as Vogue. There was only one cover line here. I was expecting to include more however I do not think that it would have went well as it would have overlapped and clashed with the main image
- 4. I would change this text from the colour purple to yellow so that I have a clear colour scheme consisting of primary colours I would try to make the book stand out a bit more from the background. Perhaps by using a more brightly coloured page I would make the dissolved outline less blurred and more solid I would change the text style to be more consistent with the rest Improvements I would make I should have included a cover line here t fill out the space more as it seems empty in comparison to the rest of the cover. The seat should be more identifiable. Also the models legs are clashing too much with the writing so should have been lightened or the image should have been changed The school logo should be more in the centre as it is apart of the magazine identification and House style.
