School Magazine

For the past week in media we have been taking part in an assignment to create a school newsletter using Photoshop and InDesign.

 

Before I created my Newsletter I decided that it wouldn't be as good as I could make it because it can show my progress through using both Photoshop and InDesign.

When we got the set the task to gather picture I was quick for ideas. I decided that it is best to promote Deyes by being happy and not dull so I settled with an idea that I could have two student walking down the school discussing work and also being happy that way I could promote the students smart dress code, the schools facilities, the hard work that students put in and also that they can have a good time and be happy. I used the Clone Stamp to get rid of any marks on the walls and also little pieces of rubbish on the floor. Another technique I used was Brightness and Contrast control where I increased both by a little bit so that the corridor didn't look to dull and dark.

The second page I made was the contents page, on this page I decided to show off the schools memorabilia as it shows what the school has achieved over the past couple of years. I used bold text so that it can stand out to the reader. One of the main changes I did you can see in the bottom right hand corner where I clone stamped a chair, the reason I did this is because I wanted the trophy cabinet to be centre of attention which I tried to do as much as I could using the rule of thirds. The last thing I did was put a yellow/gold glow on the cabinet as it increases the sense of achievement with connotations of yellow and gold being victory, first place and happiness etc..
