This is my final front cover and contents page. Overall, I think my preliminary task has been a success, especially since I have barely used the Photoshop software before this task. I wanted to make sure both the front cover and contents page connect and look like they belong in the same magazine, and with using the same feature colors of red, white and black. This also helped me keep the contents page look very neat. This links to the model I used for both pages as she is wearing the red lipstick and black choker to match the text colors with the eyedropper tool. I used the same, even less, fonts that I used on the front cover. I think the use of red for the subheadings on the contents page match well with the front cover's anchor, model and graphics I achieved this. I do feel like I could have been a little more creative with my contents page as it looks too much like a list. But I am very proud with how the cover page came out, as I can imagine it being sold on the shelves and looking professional.
So to conclude, I am very happy with my final products considering the amount of time I had to do them. I have gotten a lot more used to Photoshop, learning skills to not only do easy things, but also complex from experimenting with the software; I am excited to use it in the near future as well as carrying on posting on my blog.
