The background colour of My Magazine

The background colour of my magazine is a blue/turquoise colour. The reason that I chose this colour is because it is a calming colour and I wanted to portray the school as a calm environment to learn in. I thought that the contrast in colours between the actor, text and background worked well due to the similarity in colour scheme.

My Finished Contents Page


My Finished Cover



The text that I have used on my contents page



This is a screenshot of the text that I used in my contents page. It was on its own layer and I used the same effects in both pieces of text in order to make them look the same and uniform to the page.


This is a screenshot of the layer and the effects that I have used on this layer of text.




This is a screenshot of the other piece of text for my contents page. It was on a separate layer to the other piece of text to give myself more flexibility in the way I placed the text.
This is a screenshot of the layer for the second piece of text on my contents page.

The title for my contents page

 This is the contents page title for my magazine. i have bevel and embossed my title to make it stand out more from my background.

This is a screenshot of the layer that i used for my title for my contents page. You can see the effects that i have used on the words.




The barcode for my front cover

This is a screenshot of the barcode that I used. The barcode was inserted and placed and then it didn't need any effects doing to it. I left the barcode how it was because the image alone was effective enough.
This is a screenshot of the layer of the barcode.


The PE image from my contents page

 I edited this image to be embossed with a drop shadow in order to give it a better effect and quality to the image to page contrast; it makes the image stand out from the background colour.
This screenshot shows the layer that I have added the effects to; the layer being the image.
