The End of Streez Sound Karess

Now that the group and i have completed taking our photos it was time for us to take a look back at the photos and finally see whether they would work well with the style we are trying to create. we where told to go to a computer room where we then had the ability to see our photoshoot images, luckily for the group and i the images where great and they where in a good quality that we hoped for. unlike many other groups we had no reason to add much effects to the image as they where of such great quality and we where able to focus on the many features that we would include i the issues. The group and i now had the decission to choose two different photos from our collection that would be our cover images, after long deliberation we came to the conclusion that the 1st image would be of the two boys in my group listening to music located ioutside of the college, the second image that we decided to use was one of the boys alone, again listening to music. we chose these images as they both showed the model listening to music which was the key feature that we aimed on showing on the cover image. it was highly important that these images where of a large size and that the models in the image where giving the audience eycontact to enable a real focus onto our magazine. After choosing 2 different images to use for the two issues the group split into 2 groups, one that would work on the first issue, and the other would work on the second. we planned together the type of font that we would use and what the magazine would include i.e competitions, interviews. we decided that the cover would show many stories that are included in the magazine and promote free mix tapes and t-shirts enabling the magazine to attract the readers. but before we could do this the groups where given an induction on how to use photoshot on the imac computers wich is the software that all groups would be using to complete the magazine. this induction enabled us to gain the knowledge on how we could add many effects not only to the actual image but to the writing and text that we will eventually place on the magazine cover. after having this induction the group and i began developing our magaizine and it was time to think more about the tings that we would write on the cover. i was in the first group therfore it was my role to complete the first issue. we decided that the two issues would have similar but different features and as i had control over the 1st issue i decided that i would show that we interviewed a grime artist by having an image of the grime artist name crazy titch and writing the following in White bold lettering beside it 'Life behind bars, crazy titch explains all', we made sure that this text was large in size to attract attention and to focus on this story as it was the main and biggest story that is included within the magazine. we also included a banner on our magazine that promoted the fact that the magaine where giving away free t-shirts therefore we had a banner red in colour with the wirting 'FREE T-SHIRT' in black bold capitalized lettering. the magazine also included the price and a bar code making the issue much more realistic. the most important feature that the magaizine had to include in order to make it successful was the name of the magazine wich is Streez sound we had this wirittend at the top in very large, extremely bold, red capatilized lettering on the top of a large black banner. we all made sure that the two issues contained the same title as this needed to be the feature that connects the two covers together. we made this extremely bold and big as it is higfhy important that the magazine had a focus point and this case it was the image and the title. After long hours of woking hard on photoshot our magazine covers where both completed and it was now time to look at both covers and evaluate the work and progress that we have made through completing our music magazine covers.
