Using in design

I chose to use In Design as a university lecturer from Plymouth university came into my college and suggested it would be a better – more professional way in designing my front cover – he also works for The Guardian therefore had a lot of expertise in this software. It was hard at first to use but I got used to it. Here is sent in a photograph from my folder ‘front cover images’ by pressing CTRL and D at the same time of Dan, my main model.

to the right hand side as you can see I have used many different fonts to represent different bands. I didn’t this by exploring with the fonts in the tool bar at the top and making sure that the fonts of the chosen bands closely matches the actual font they use in real life to display the band name

Here I could go into the ‘view’ bad and set it so that I could see all the ‘guides’ on the page. This was useful as I was able to align a lot of my subheading with each other in order to make the structure of it my front page more neat and tidy

Here I was changing the colours of some of my text and of the underlining of some of my subheadings. I could do this by inserting a box underneath the titles of my subheading and changing the colour of it to that colour choice I wanted – here it being grey. I could also make some of the colours I used ‘swatches’ so that the specific colours was saved in order for me to use them again - like I did with my masthead and my main heading

Here I imported an image of a

barcode in which I saved

into my folders on my computer

form the internet. I did

this by inserting a box and them using CTRL and D to import the barcode image
