Practise Magazine Cover






Online Magazine - Website Design

This is my step-by-step, photographic evidence of my web design

Here I have chosen which website theme I want, I have chosen the 'PLAY' one as I liked the font of the text and I used the colour as inspiration for the colours I actually chose.


This is one style of design I chose as I liked the look of the different sections.
This is the design I chose as I like how the text overlaps/blends in with the background photo.


 In the pictures above and below I used example pictures to visualise what my webpage would look like with my own photos on it.


I then used an example picture to see what it would look like against my chosen design, to see if I like the way it loos and I think it looks good how the text is over the picture. I have also changed the sub-heading to '24/7 FASHION' and added the company email to the web design, as it looks more professional.

This is my chosen design for the middle of the age, where I will include a few news stories, to resemble the general fashion magazines, I also chose which colour I wanted and I'm happy wit this colour scheme as it suits a female magazine.
This is the bottom of my home page on my web design, I have chosen to keep the 'contact us' bit as it helps it look professional and it means audiences can interact.

Cosmopolitan use sans serif font
Vogue uses serif font



I have decided hat for my magazine, I prefer the sans serif font as it is more bold and will stand out more. Below are my ideas for fonts for my magazine, I will do some audience research to find out which font people prefer then choose which one I will use.
Dafont.com



These are the stages I went through on photoshop to choose the colour I wanted for the title, I used the eye-dropper tool to match the colour of the title with the colour of the pixel of my models face.






 These are my final two choices for fonts, it is out of the LEMON MILK or the COCOGOOSE font. I asked for opinions from several of my target audience and the majority of them have said
