The process of making my front cover

In the first stage of producing my magazine, I planned out a rough sketch of what I wished to include within it, not going into too much detail but covering my basic ideas to start with which I would then be able to develop as I proceeded.

I then took this a stage further by using the programme Microsoft Word Publisher to show roughly the colour schemes and layout which I had in mind to include in my media product.



The final production stage of my front cover was the actual creating the magazine cover on the photo manipulation programme Photoshop.
This is an unfinished version of what my magazine will look similar too however there are a few additional changed to be made.

The planning process has dramatically helped me towards creating the best possible outcome for my Wyke magazine. I have been able to take my ideas further, letting them improve and changing the weaker parts of the magazine.
