Lets Get Started!

For our lesson on the 31/01/2011 we each took a camera and went to take photogrpahs around the school for the front cover of the magazine. as i already had a clear idea of what i wanted to place on the front cover of the magazine. mine was to be of students standing outside of the front gate smiling whilst holding their school books.

By having the girls smiling whilst standing outside of the school hints to the audienece that they are hapyy and enjoy being at the school. By holding their schools books, it also indicates that they enjoy working here.

After we finished taking photogrpahs we went back into the classroom, onto the computers to begin to create our front covers for the school magazine.

To the left is the begining of my school magazine. The first main things you can notcie is that i have added a Mast Head (St Mark's Monthly), the selling line (Your guide to get through Sixth Form), Date (January/February 2011) and the schools logo.

By using the clone tool I have also got rid of objects from the photo. the first thing was the building onto of the schools name. I felt that this was a bad view. By removing the building it allowed me the space to include the name of the my magazine.

I have also changed the Hue and Saturation to allow the redness of the girls hair and the school to stand out. It brightened to photo and highlighted the school building.
