Before and After PhotoshopScreenshot evidence
Front Cover
• I began my front cover, with a transparent a4 paper.
• Then using the paint bucket tool I changed the background to be black, on a new layer.
• Then on a new layer I added a shadow using the paint brush took and lowered the opacity to 30%, so it was more faded.
• I then on a new layer placed the picture of my model onto my front cover underneath the shadow on the layer before.
• Next, on a new layer, I added multi-coloured dots to give my front cover a splash of colour. This dot theme I intend to continue on both my contents page and double page spread as well.
• In the third screenshot, on a new layer, I began to construct my masthead; ‘Quaint’. Font- Elementary SF. I also made the ‘Q’ bigger then the rest of the letters, so it stands out more.
• Next, on a new layer I added effects to the Quaint masthead.
• The first effect was a drop shadow.
• The second was an inner shadow.
• The third was an inner glow.
• I continued to add effects to my masthead.The last effect I used was bevel and emboss. All on new layersThen I added a plug background in the second screenshot, on a new layer. Followed by, using a gradient overlay effect on that. Shown in the third screenshot.
• I then added text over the top of the plug background on a new layer, using Yellow, Green, White and Black colours for the text, which was in a CityBlueprint font.
• Next, on a new layer, I added a grey shadow background for the price and issue number, using the paint brush tool.
• On a new layer I added the price, again using the CityBlueprint font.
• I then added the issue number on another new layer underneath the price, again using CityBlueprint font.
• In the second screenshot, on a new layer, I placed a picture of a barcode in the bottom left hand corner of the page.
• Thirdly, on a new layer again, I added a shadow background for the plug at the bottom of the page, so the writing stands out more.
• Next, on a new layer I added the writing to go over the plug, in either a white, green or golden/yellow colour in font Orator std.
• In the second screenshot, on a new layer, I began my exclusive section of the front cover. Firstly I added a pink glow using the paint brush tool.
• Secondly, on a new layer, I added the exclusive sub-title to on top of the pink glow.
• Next, I used an effect of the ‘exclusive’ sub-title of a drop shadow.
• On another new layer, I then added the bulk of the information in the subscribe circle.
• Finally, in the third screenshot on a new layer, I added the ‘Rosie McCarthy’ masthead, to indicate who in fact was on the front cover and what a taster of what she has to say.
• I then edited the ‘Rosie McCarthy’ masthead using firstly a drop shadow edit.
• Secondly, an inner shadow edit.
• Thirdly, an outer glow edit.
• I continued adding more effects to my ‘Rosie McCarthy’ masthead. Shown in the first screenshot I added an Inner glow edit.
• In the second I added an bevel and emboss edit.
• In the third I added a colour overlay.
• All on new layers.
• I then, on a new layer, started adding the white dots, made using the paint brush tool to the bottom left hand side of my page.
• I changed the opacity to 53% so they were more faded, to enable the photo underneath to still be seen, as well as the writing that is about to go on top.
• In the second screenshot, on a new layer, I added the text, in font eccentric std, acting as a cover line, giving readers more information about what to expect in the magazine.
• In the third screenshot, again on a new layer, I added the second white dot.
• Next, on a new layer, I added the text over the second white dot, in font Egyptian710 std.
• In the second screenshot I then added the third and final white dot again with an opacity of 53%. On a new layer.
• Finally, in the third screenshot, on a new layer, I added the text in font Casablanca light SF, to go over the top of it; ‘Ella Eyre...’.
• On a new layer, I added a quote from Rosie McCarthy under her masthead/name, in font Lucida Bright, to give the readers a taster of what she says and how she feels about her success and new fame.
• Then, on a new layer I added a black rectangular box (using the rectangle tool on Photoshop) to act as a background for a cover-line, as seen in the third screen shot, where I added a new layer and then put text over the top of the box.
• Then, on another new layer I added a second black box, to act as a background for the information about the artist named above, and what you can find out her in the magazine.
• Next, on a new layer, I then added the text over, in font Colonial SF, over the top of the black rectangle.
• In the third screenshot, again using the rectangle tool on Photoshop I added another box, grey this time, to act as a background for another cover line, I was about to construct.
• I then, on a new layer, added the Kasabian cover line sub-title.

• Then, on a new layer, I added another rectangular box, and then as shown in the third screenshot, added an edit on it of a colour overlay, to give it the black effect instead.
