• I created my background by using the paint bucket tool and selecting the colour that I chose.
• I also created the bar code using the shape tool, I duplicated the same shape several time to create the look of a barcode.

#2• I then created masthead for
my magazine. To do this I used the shape tool and used the font ‘Chocolate Dealer’. I chose this font as I thought it suited the style of my magazine.
• I also edited my masthead by duplicating the layer and using the blending mode ‘Colour overlay’ to change the colour and move each layer to the left slightly.

#3• After my masthead I added
the banner. I did this by using the shape tool and selecting a suitable colour – Pink.
• After adding the rectangle banner I included the text and changed the spacing of the lettering to that it would fill the banner. I did this by using the ‘Character’ window in Photoshop. This made the text look more suited for the banner

• I have also included Social information and issue information on the front cover of my magazine. I did this using, the pen tool and cutting out the background of the icon.

• To remove the background from the image of my cover star I used the pen tool to cut around the main body outline.
• I also used the background eraser tool to remove the background from more difficult areas such as around the hair.

• I further edited the picture for my front cover by duplicating the layer and using the ‘Colour overlay’ effect in blending options. I shifted the layer to the left several spaces.

• Finally I added all of my cover lines. I used different fonts to make certain things stand out more on the cover such as the plugs.
• I also created the banner at the bottom using a torn paper effect bush that I found.
• I have also used the custom shape tool for shape on the top left of the page.
