Magazine Practical Task
Research
1) Use Google to research potential magazines that you could use as your brand/design for this project. Create a shortlist of three potential magazines and embed an example front cover from each one. We recommend looking at lifestyle magazines or a similar genre as these are more achievable to re-create.
Image Planning:
My image will feature a female model as it is an women in TV issue, who's eyes will be looking up to the side, with her head tilted. She will be wearing a bomber jacket, with a 'Black Panther' shirt underneath to promote the new superhero film she stars in. She will be wearing a necklace and earrings in order to compliment her outfit and represent the femininity aspect. The lighting will be shined towards the side of her face so that it creates a shadow on the other half of her face.
1) Once you have completed your design in Photoshop, go to 'File > Save a copy' and save your finished Photoshop magazine cover as a JPEG image. Then, upload it to your blogpost.
I believe I have succeeded in my brief to create a new, original edition edition of an existing magazine as I tried my best to replicate Elle's women in music edition magazines but with my own original twist of course by changing the colour scheme, the cover lines, the fact that instead of women in music it is women in TV. I believe my cover does not stand up alongside the genuine covers, it is a good replica however I believe you would still be able to tell which ones are genuine. I believe my work is professional however it could've looked more professional, for example smaller cover lines.
4) Finally, what would you do differently if you completed this assignment again?
