Preliminary Task: Front Cover

Starting The College Magazine: SDC LIFESTYLE

This is what i did today, i started on my college magazine on InDesign, we got taught how to do the simple stuff in this program as many of us had not of used it before. I chose this picture because there is enough room at the top for the masthead. I have added a tag line and cover lines, in the font of Thonburi because it was similar to the masthead font which was Confortaa. Then secondly for my masthead i used a bright hot pink as it is bight and noticeable then i added the bottom shadow to make it noticeable. i added the South Downs logo on to it because i thought that was important as i am representing south downs college with my magazine. i learnt to use lots of different tools on InDesign this program is pretty similar to Paint. Macromedia fireworks and Photoshop so i got the hang on it quickly, i enjoy using it and all the different tools. To the left the is the tool bar used a lot to change to the  colours of texts, to move objects. You can cut pictures out, add the photos to the back round and fill the page.
