Step 2: I then imported the title I created previously in Photoshop. This was placed at the top right of the page as it looked appealing and didn't take up the majority of the magazine.
Step 3: Next I 'photoshoped' a guitar in my back and cut around myself so that I could sit in the middle of the page. I also applied a watercolour effect on my face as the original image was far too dark and the quality was fairly poor.
Step 4: Then I created my main tagline. I created a black rectangle and then made it 65% transparrent so that my text had a slight background - this made it easier to read and clearer to see.
Step 5: The next step was to create the bottom banner. This was done with a black rectangle with a silver trim. I then wrote some features which would be included in the magazine and put substantial spaces between them so that they stood out. I wanted to follow a particular colour scheme which is why I kept with the black appeal.
Step 6: Then I put all of the conventional features of a magazine onto the page. These included the puff (made with an image of a bass drum and red text included), a barcode and a date. These were important as I needed my magazine to look as real as possible.
Step 7: Finally, I created the rest of my taglines and inserted the top banner above the title. The top banner followed the same style as the bottom and the taglines followed the same style as the main tagline. After that, I moved the images and text so that the placement looked correct and that the important features of the magazine were clear and bold.
