Preliminary Task



















This is my Preliminary task which I created in Design. This was the first time I had used the programme, so everything was new to me. When creating this magazine cover, I cut out the student, clearing the background. This was very time consuming but was worth it in the end, as my magazine cover was now colour co-ordinated and looked more attractive.

Practicing was very helpful. Looking at my finished image now, I can comment on what could be improved. Although my image is very clear, it was a very quick shot and lacks a connection to what the magazine is about. The colour scheme I chose, was to link with the College colours. I think the alternating colour scrips work well, alothough they do cover up quite alot of the image. The colour of the text works well, but the text font could be a little more exciting.

When creating my final piece, I shall relate back to this practice task, and make sure I dont make the same mistakes again. I shall research into other fonts of text, picking out the most attractive ones, that will work together with my magazine cover, to appeal to the audience more.
