in my lesson today i started my music magazine. first of all i uploaded a picture of my friend Fiona. i edited the picture by taking the background out and i made the contrast of the picture lighter. I thought because it is a music magazine i looked in a thesaurus for other words which represent music and i decided to use the word harmony. I used a website called dafont.com and used a font from there and because i was aiming the magazine to be for females i filled the font with the colour pink. To make it look like a real magazine i added various headings about stories that are contained in the magazine. for those headings i used a few colours like pink, yellow and blue which work well with the layout of the page. I put Icons on the page such as stars to make the theme for girls and a bar code to make the magazine seem more real. When i thought i had finished i looked at the text and the font of the text on the front page and it looked childish and boring so i decided to use the shadow tool on the program serif page plus which i was using and gave the text a little shadow, this gave my music magazine cover its last finishing touches.
You need to upload some photographsStacey and scan some front covers in to show that you understand the codes and conventions. Always use a capital I. You need to justify your choices in terms of what the magazine suggests to the reader (what is the ideology)
