Preliminary Final

Skills I have learned

The organization of space. This has a greater use of the left and right to place content

Fonts. I learned how to use different style to emphasise certain words through italics, bold serif and sans serif.Colour. I learned how to tie in the house style with the picture, by using exactly the same shades of colour as those that are in James’ jacket. And they contrast with the rest of the picture

The position of images. This picture is organised to work within the frame.

The use of Camera. This image had a much clearer shallow depth of field, and a better quality.

Layer effects. The puff has a white outline, and the text on the album cover has a shadow effect on it.

Skills I have learned (contd.)

Layers: II learnt a lot about structure. Such as how to put an opaque square above an image to allow the text to be clearerContents: I learned more about how music magazines work, with special features.

Images: I learned that different images have different denotations and connotations, so that they would fit in different parts of the magazine

Editing: The image has two layers. One is James an done is the background. The background has colour removed, and James has had colour added.

Text: I learned how to organise text to highlight the more important sections and leave enough space for the sub text.
