School Magazine COVER + CONTENTS

 I created the school magazine cover and contents page on Abode InDesign CS5.5, taking in consideration the survey results analysis and my own research.

Edited images for School magazine

I edited all the images on photoshop CS5, on photoshop to edit most of my images i used Auto brightness/contrast/colour. This was to efficiently yet successfully create a balanced image. The images also have all been increased in vibrancy and saturation, this is to make the image stand out more and by making the image more saturated it increases the depth of the colour. I did this because from my survey i have gathered that images are the main priority when looking at a magazine, therefore by increase the amount of colour in the image it makes the image less dull and more exciting.

Types of shots

I took the images for the school images for the magazine and varied the different types of shots to make it more interesting and to have a wider option of image selection.

The varying shots are, 

Extreme close up

 Mid shot

Wide-shot

Media Photography composition

Flat plan blocking

This is my flat plan blocking of my front cover and contents page of my magazine.  I created this by taking in the results of my survey and using those results to create this idea.
