Magazine part 2

Simon told me to change the design and stuff which I understand as I just jumped in without thinking. I decided to justify the name and change the title: heres the second version at the moment.

I mistakenly tried using a pink colour scheme again which clashed horribly with the gray and black of the title and castle, and the inclusion of real images didn’t fit at all with the cartoonish background.

It’s safe to say this version of my magazine did not look at all how I wanted it. It was after my failure here that I took a different approach to the project.

Making Magazine Cover

I'm making the magazine cover heres the first design.

This kind of thing really catches my attention, but then again I’m the one who made it and I have an unfair perspective to look at my work from.

Forutunately the person sat next to me repeatedly said he didn’t know where I was going with this or what the heck it was supposed to be saying. So this promted me to ask my fellow classmates what they thought about this magazine.

Simons lesson

Justifying ideas. I had done several ideas but i hadnt put any thoght into why I had done them that way. So in simons lesson i learnt that its important to put thought into the type of fonts i would use as well as the colours

Giving the Magazine Presentation

Just gave a magazine presentation

Below are two mock ups of my finished magazine.



I need to do more research into making a final magazine.

First time using illustrator

I took some screen grabs of what I did like lol

Raster and Vector again

I screen grabbed  2 picutres to demontrate the difference of Raster and Vector images.

Raster Image is also known as Bitmap image and uses a grid of individual pixels that compose the entire picture, each pixel can be a different colour or shade.

Vector Images are composed of paths that use mathematical relationships between points and the paths connecting them to describe an image. Put basically:

Bitmap images usually require higher resolutions and an “anti-aliasing” filter for a smoother appearance. Vector-based graphics on the other hand are mathematically described and appear smooth at any size or resolution. Because of this, Vector based images are of a much higher quality than Raster but require a VERY large amount of space.
