2. • Firstly I opened up a
new project using
Quark Express. I then
began to arrange my
initial layout.
3. • I then wrote up my
interview on a word
document and
imported it onto my
project. To define my
questions from my
answers I changed the
font colour to red and
changed the font to
times new roman.
4. • I then had to import my
main image then enlarged
and centred it on the
page. I then used photo
shop to create the
headline. After creating a
picture box and importing
my headline I found that
Quark had difficulty
resizing and so I had to do
enlarge the headline with
Photoshop and re-import
it.
5. • After this I began to
experiment with frames
and effects to make my
main image stand out. I
finally decided on a dark
colour red to frame my
image drawing focus. I
then created a drop
quote box and used black
as it followed my colour
scheme and stood out
against the white.
6. • Here I began to create a
collage of posed and
action shot photo’s. After
looking at other rock
genre magazines, I found
that images were tilted
and consisted of a group
photo and individual
shots of the members.
Again I framed the images
to follow the colour
scheme and to draw
attention.
7. • This then became the first
draft and this was my
finalised product for this
draft. However there were
problems with this such as
the text didn’t fill the page
and so there were gaps, as
well as this my layout
disallowed me to have
individual images of
members. I found my
weakness was using Quark
as throughout the process I
had various technical
difficulties.
