this gives a better idea of the contrast between the two titles and how I have changed them, I am much happier with the black boarder around the lettering by selecting the ‘stroke’ tool.

This is the tool I’ve used to highlight the lettering which is difficult to see, it enhances the words and letter to almost embossing  them out the page and giving the lettering a black boarder.

 I have now completed all my coverlines and edited them to different fonts, but I have also been careful not to overload my magazine cover with too many fonts and bold outlines, as from my research I have found that this cramps their cover and doesnt draw your eye to anything, it makes it look cheap and unattractive. However by choosing the white font to be consistant Im struggling to fit one of my stories onto the cover as it clashes with her white collar.

 Here is my magazine cover so far, From my research I have found that not many school magazine have barcodes on so I have made the decision to remove the bar code, this allows more space for a possible cover line or another picture.

 Here I have inserted a simple masthead with the obvious name of JENKIN. Underneath this I have deliberately overlapped the date within the masthead name, I love how this blends and contrasts with the model’s hair, Lucky she was brunette!

Next I would like to add more coverlines and text to intise a reader, I’d also like to try to include a few more images, possibly just one. This would allow the audience to see what’s inside and to include a small story.
