Evaluation.

To create my front cover and contents page i used Adobe InDesign CS2

When creating my front cover i created a layout grid. I then moved onto the title of the magazine. I named it Lewes mag and decided to go with the font Kristen ICT and went with point 90. I then moved onto the slogan which reads 'The Lewes College Magazine'. I then added in the background for my front cover, as seen above. I had to put this photo as fit to page to insure it was the right size. I then began to add articles titles, i decided to use yellow font, to create a contrast with the background. I then added in the issue num ber, college website and date directly at the bottom of the page, remebering to keep within the layout grids. To complete the front cover i created and added in a logo for Sussex Downs College and put it towards the top, as seen in my flat plan.

I then went onto completing my magazine task by adding a contents page. Firstly i added lay out grids. I didn't add all the names of the articles of my magazine into this contents, by instead planned where they would go - i also did this with the photos. I used the same type and same colour font as the cover title, but used point 72 instead. I also added in a plan of where the contact details would go, had this been a real contents page.

This is the final version of the Magazine front cover:
