Some edited photos

Here i took away the colour to give a greyscale effect. This was to make the image darker to look more professional.

I changed the brightness on this image to make a more effective picture.

I changed the brightness and contrast on this image using photoshop to get a brighter image that stands out from the background.

I changed the Hue saturation on this image using photoshop. I added more green to get this effect.

Here i edited the photo by cutting kathy away from the background layer on photoshop. I then placed the cut out layer on top of the original image so it creates a secret layer but looks no different. Using a black rubber tool i scribbled across the background layer to create this effect^. By cutting kathy out it created this cool effect to the background but then did not go on Kahty herself.

This video was to ask questions to my peers and find what they thought was most important in a magazine.

Initial ideas/Mocks of a front cover, contents page and a double page spread

I made rough templates of my inital ideas for my front cover, my contents page and my double page spread. I have planned where each convention will go and used boxes for text and images. I made these by using photoshop and publisher.

Rihanna  Behind-the-Scenes ELLE Cover Shoot July 2010 

I really like this magazine front cover. I think the Costume design of what Rhianna is wearing fits in with the house style perfectly. I think that the positioning of Rhianna her self is very accurate and it looks effective. Watching the behind the shoot video was really interesting as it shows you all the different positions they placed her in, the different costumes, until they came across the final image. I like how the magazine front cover is plain, yet effective and is widely based around Rhianna.
