My mock up of my music magazine cover

This is my final version of my mock up of the Q magazine I copied; the original copy is also shown below. I feel quite confident with my final piece of my mock up magazine front cover just disappointed that I could not include the image I had taken because the colour clashed with many activities going on, on the front cover. I have found very similar font, colour and style for my front cover for the story lines.

 I have recently looked closely at my mock of the magazine and the original front cover of the magazine and have noticed the font sizing and positioning would need to be more concentrated on. For my own cover of my music magazine I will make sure I concentrate carefully on the positioning and size of the text so that it is perfect for the reading audience and make sure I am considering the smallest details. 

I am happy with the way I used the adobe facilities I now feel much more confident in using the different tools while completing my mock up magazine. Even though I could not include the photo in the magazine cover, I am happy with the way I used photo shop to delete the background to make it clear and to blend in however there was an issue with what the model was wearing and her hair which clashed with my front cover. I feel much happier to use various facilities on adobe to change the style of font, colour and effects.

 Also when I create my own mock up magazine I will look carefully in to what layer will be the different boxes with either texts or images making sure no text are covered as this will have an impact on the audience.

 In doing this mock up magazine of Q it has helped me understand layout, codes and convention of music magazines and has given me ideas for my own music magazine. Everything I have learnt in my mock up magazine will go towards my own music magazine.
