The burn tool allowed me to
make the models eyebrows
darker. I used this on the places
which I wanted to make darker
Once I had
used the
burn
tool, the
models
eye, brows
,eyelashes
became
darker
Using the ‘plaster’ tool I
removed an dimples, dots,
freckles on the models face.
Therefore is looked more
professional and it has more
of an eye catching
presentation
Finally I had made a new
more changes to the
model in order to make it
look more professional (
i.e. cropping and
enhancing the brightness).
Once I had finished this I
was ready to add body
text, buttons and logos
across the page
Final Front Cover & Why I chose this
image
The reason I used this shot as my front cover is
because the close up shot follows the same
conventions as many music magazines.
I closely followed the same convention as Q
magazine using Florence. The close up image with
the artist staring directly towards the reader, will
not only grip the readers attention immediately
but it almost builds interaction with the reader,
therefore is forces then to read the magazine. The
close up shot also express the artist’s feelings and
clearly builds different connotations for the reader
to understand the genre of music the artist
follows.
I used the same conventions
as the Q magazine in order to
achieve an appealing front
cover. It was essential to have
a strong front cover as this is
the first thing which the
reader will see.
