Final preliminary coursework

Today I have completed my preliminary coursework task which was to create a school magazine. I created the over page and the contents page. After obtaining 4 photographs which I had taken my self I had edited them to create a final product.

This is the cover of my school magazine, which has the theme of sport. It contains a picture of a student playing basketball.

This is the contents page of my magazine. It contains information on what the rest of the magazine would contain. It also has four images which all relate to the theme sport. they also link with the headings which are on the contents page making the pictures relevant.

preliminary coursework.

 Today i have planned out my magazine cover and the contents page on a piece of paper as a rough design.
Also i created a rough design of the contents and the cover on Adobe photoshop, containing the outline design as i have not taken any pictures yet. It also contained the title which i had to edit by removing layers. 

First lesson 20/01/2011

Today i have learnt the basic aspects of photoshop. I have learnt how to add layers to a image to edit the design of the image. This is how the picture had looked before i had edited it.

I then began to add this image to alter how the animated image would look. it was tricky at first as i had to learn how to remove background, but i had quickly learnt how to by asking pupils who had previously used the software.

After adding the second image to the first it looked like this. to achieve this i had to remove previously added layers to place the second image to alter the first image.
