For the box I used under my lead
article, I simply drew it with the
rectangular marquee tool, and filled
it with the paint bucket tool. I also
changed the opacity to 70% so it
wouldn’t overpower my lead article
title, and so it would blend into the
background. to cut the edges of the
box’s I used the polygonal lasso
tool, the reason I did this was the
get rid of unnecessary bits I didn’t
need, and also to make the box
look neater.

For my lead article title, I used the
stroke tool, to form the white on
black approach, this was to make it
stand out over the rest of my cover
lines. I also used the red so it stood
out over the colour box behind it. I
only put the size of the stroke to 7%
so it didn’t overpower the text.

For my barcode I simply just copied and
pasted it from Google, and then just used
the magic wand tool to cut out all the white
bits around it. The reason I chose a red
barcode was so it was clear and visible over
the background.

For the caption box at the bottom of
my front cover I simply just drew it with
the square marquee toll and added
some effect such as
- I used a gradient overlay to
enhance the black and it added a
grey tone
- I used a drop shadow, to increase
the colour tone
- I used the stoke icon, to outline the
box to make it stand out even
further.

All of my text for my
cover lines I kept plain
and simple, I chose Arial
font type, so it still looked
neat and presentable,
but I didn’t use a font
type such as Times New
Roman, because it
looked to formal for the
image I was heading for.

The mast head I kept simple but
bold. I also added the caption
‘music sensation’ underneath just
to finish it off. I used the stroke
tool on size 18% to really
enhance and make the mast
head much bolder. Which is what
I wanted so it would stand out to
the audience
