Analysing+annotating magazine covers.


In todays lesson we had two contrasting magazines that are aimed towards different types and ages of audience, and we had to pick out every little detail we could that shows what they were thinking when aiming towards these audiences. What sort of styles and techniques they used and colour schemes etc... The QUAD was harder than the NEWSMAN as it was for an older audience and was not as clear and easy to pick out why they used certain colours, layout etc..

Nature Magazine...

In this lesson i have created a nature magazine by using photoshop, we briefly learnt the basics of using this document and the tips have come in use.

I have used a number of layers and effects within my magazine, such as feathering, croping, and changing colours within the original image to make it look brighter, and more colourful than it was before.
I would have a image to show but it isn't letting me post it on here, so i will have to show it in tuesdays lesson, sorry!
