After all the hard work I have completed my first every magazine design! I have learned so much and have made amazing progression along the way. Back in September we started the preparation learning the technical key terms of magazines as well as the conventional features. We learned how to attract our target audience for a preferred reading through media language as well as the competition before we began designing. We did a practical task were I dressed up as a music star from a randomly selected genre this taught us how the use of mis-en-scene is very effective in creating a star imageĀ then we learned how the different camera angles can convey different feelings and tell a story.
We began learning the basics of indesign and photoshop by copying a magazine cover which taught me most of the basic skills I need to start designing on my own. We created a tour poster using the photos from are practical which further developed my knowledge of these software. Then we did a course on learning how to use the camera in a studio and setting up the lighting to get the best quality pictures and planned out the mise-en-sceneĀ to create a star image I wanted to portray.
Finally, after all the tasks we began the designing process which just from comparing my first draft to my final piece I am really proud of how much I have improved and I’m very happy with how it all comes together.
