Magazine lesson 4: Photoshop


Today was a long lesson in the Mac room, never the less a good lesson as we were given the chance to make our magazines covers. We sat next to each other in our groups, to make it easy for us to communicate with each other. At the beginning to the lesson we were show how to open up Photoshop and create an A4 size sheet on Photoshop. We was then let off to design our magazine, each member of the group had to design their own front cover but the font style of the logo had to be the same on the each of our magazine cover, so we decided to use the front style that Derek had on his front cover. We then were able to fondle around with our pictures and cut them out to our preferences and place as we wished on our cover. I also went onto the internet to look for a good background for my cover. After many tries on trying to position everything in front of the background I called for Mary’s help and she showed me that there were layers and that I need to place the background layer at a certain position to make it behind all the other items.
