Week 10

This week, we analysed two different magazine front covers made by students from Harris Academy Purley. One called 'The Reign' and the other, 'Rap Realism'. We looked at elements such as font, color and images used in detail. Doing this gave me more ideas of what I ashould and should not do with my own magazine cover. I have changed my mind about a few things on my magazine such as color. I only want to stick to a minimum of three colors, the main ones being black and white. This week we also had photoshop training. This helped greatley as I can now do more things with my front cover and double page spread although I want to keep it simple. During my analyis of front covers I noticed that using simple font with a simple setting looks much better than different font styles with a 'messy' background. I plan to use this idea on my magazine.
