Creation of my Double Page Spread

The process: 

While in the middle of creating my double page spread as part of my music magazine production task I thought that I would keep you posted on my progress so far... 

This blog post is just a brief indication of what I am currently up to in my process so I will include a few photos and explain the products that I have been using and how useful I am finding them at the moment:


Step one

So firstly to create this image I used one of the pictures that I had taken in preparation for this. Using the AFTERLIGHT editing application software I lowered the temperature, increased the contrast, and added the VIGNETTE effect to the image. Once this was completed I uploaded that very photo to my new favourite editing tool called PICLAY... I used this editing software to create the quadruple mirror effect to the photo as you can see above. I then uploaded the photo to an application called PIXLR where I was able to add text to the photo to get the double page spread to a start. I did not end up using the grey RENEGADE in the top corner after all and you can see in the next image that I placed the title in the bottom right corner instead which I think was more appropriate as it allowed the main focus to remain on my talent which is what I wanted as this point.

Step two
After making the title smaller and changing the font to 'ASAP' in a hot pink colour, I also added a quote in the same font and colour in the corner diagonally opposite. I chose not to place any text directly over my talent because I want to keep that separate and refrain from making the DPS look messy or lack organisation - this could prevent TA from reading the page itself!

Step three
