SCHOOL MAGAZINE - FINAL STAGES

I intended for my magazine cover to look, simple but not dull as it is aimed towards teenagers between 12-18. I also didn't want to make the cover look dramatically untidy as it makes it seem overly unprofessional so I played around with the settings on Photoshop to come up with this. 

One point I could have improved on was the photography. I didn't notice that I'd need the entire body of the model to be in shot which gave me difficulties. To prevent this next time, I could sketch out a draft of what I intend my cover to look like then act upon those sketches.

In the contents page, I decided that I'd use the same colour scheme to the cover page just to give the image of consistency in the layout for the rest of the magazine. One thing I didn't expect was to see that I couldn't fit the initial raw images into the cont. page as it dramatically pixelated. Next time I could use a better quality camera rather then to have to use images from Google. I also gave a form of watermark on the bottom right corner just to give that side of professionalism to the magazine.
