Final Contents Page

Here is my final version of my contents page, I have used inspiration of the 'VIBE' magazine to create funky font styles like my 'contents' text. I have also used my own images to work together to create a realistic atmosphere to my magazine. On top of this, I did play around with some of the software tools like over lapping/fading/shading/and colouring, I did criticise this on one of my research examples as they had not  done this - hence, why I did this to my magazine to make it look more professional. 

Final Double Page Spread

Here is my final version of my double page spread, I really am proud of this piece of work, modest I know, however I did spend a lot of time on this piece and found it very hard to think about. I know it isn't perfect, but I spent a while researching double page spreads finding examples of both good and bad. After doing so I found confidence on what to do with mine and how to make it look professional and to a standard of a hopeful high achievement. I like how I have used the text 'B' to lay faded underneath the main image of Big James, I got inspired to do this by finding a similar representaiton on an example that I found. Alongwith the lighning bolts I also got inspired to do them, however I felt two would give a better effect than the one, prooved to be very hip - hop modern I have recieved many high comments whilst constructing this piece of coursework.

Final Front Cover



After receieving some feedback from my front cover from class mates and Mr. Morris, I felt that I had some time to make a few small adjustments to create a better front page for my music magazine titled 'BoomBox'. In evaluation to this piece of work, I spent by far the longest amount of my coursework time on this page, why? Few answers to that, first one being I was getting used to corelDRAW Graphics Suite this did take some time getting used too it as I had never used this software before... Also, I thought first time round with this final cover that I made some small mistakes like a slight colour change in the 'PLUS' so just editing these mistakes to make the cover more thorough, I would hopefully make it to a better standard, thus hopefully achieveing a higher mark. The subject picture was very hard to edit to fit in with the white background as it was taken in a very light area, however I felt I did achieve it to look quite well where it is situated. I choose not to use a plug on my front cover because I felt a sticker with infromation on it would ruin my cover and look out of place, so I used a hook instead which to my feedback worked out very well too.
