- 1. Place image into Photoshop tab in A4 size. Set up Guide lines to have an idea as to where you will place your text in order to keep a neat presentation.
- 2. Filter the image using ‘Photo Filter’ option
- 3. Add masthead to the top of the image
- 4. Add issue number and date/ month. I have only added the month since my magazine is published monthly. Also, I have added the magazine’s website discretely at the sides of the images, below the masthead so that it doesn’t interrupt the main image.
- 5. Add the rectangles and circles that will contain your main sell lines using the shapes tool.
- 6. Then I begun to add the sell lines into the shapes.
- 7. I used the injecting tool to inject the main blue colour from my contents page so that the magazine has the same house style.
- 8. Add the plus symbol to indicate that the following articles are included in the magazine.
- 9. Begin to add the sell lines
- 10. Continue to add sell lines
- 11. I then added the name of the artist in the main image which would draw their focus to her mainly.
- 12. I continued to be creative with this idea, and make some sort of logo out of her name. I zoomed in really close to the letters, and added an extra rectangle onto the letter ‘Y’.
- 13. I proceeded to extend the rectangle since it was coming across quite nicely.
- 14. I then put the name of her new album within the rectangles.
- 15. I added another rectangle for an added effect.
- 16. I then added a quote said by the editors of New Wave magazine so that it sounded more realistic.
