LO4 (U3) - Be able to carry our post-production techniques and processes for an original media product to a client brief Front Cover This is my front cover, in which I have exported as a JPEG. Double Page Spread This is my double page spread, in which I have exported as a JPEG. How this exported media product meets the brief The brief first asks me to create a new online and print based magazine for North London. This media I have exported can be used in a digital format, which it is currently in, which is the online part of the magazine, however it could also be printed on thick white hardback paper. It would be printed like this as it is a monthly magazine, therefore does not have to be eco friendly, because it is only sporadically created.

LO4 (U3) - Be able to carry out post production techniques and processes for an original media product to a client brief. There are many post-production techniques I have used, for example: magnetic lasso, effects such as stroke and emboss, backgrounds and changing of fonts.

For example, I used an effect called 'stroke' on the circle in the top right hand corner. This added an outer layer to make it and it even...

LO3 (U3) - Be able to create production materials for an original media product to a client brief Photoshop template of front cover Photoshop template of double page spread Codes and conventions 1) The genre rock is renowned to be dark, heavy and quite intimidating. In nearly all the magazines I have seen, such as 'Classic Rock', the magazine has a black theme running through it. For my magazine, I have decided to stick with the social conventions of a darker theme, which is why my background is a dark black brick wall. However I have added a red effect into the magazine to make the colour stand out. 2) Instruments are presented in many rock genre magazines, as they are of massive importance. Rock genres main instruments are guitar, bass and drums. This is a theme that is placed in many rock magazines. Therefore, I have kept with the codes and conventions of these magazines by giving my rock artist a guitar to be held while the photo is being taken. ...
