As Media

1. DPS Screenshots

2. Opened a new A4 document in Adobe inDesign, I selected 3 pages
because it sets pages 2 and 3 parallel to each other.

3. Added title to page using the text tool.

4. Added writer credit and positioned it under the title.

5. Added main article with a drop cap, added a gradient to the background in
order to make the background seem less boring. Changed text colour to
red to match the house style of the magazine and it also one of the only
colours to stand out against the gradient background (however this may
need to be changed if gradient changes).

6. Changed gradient. Added sub image to help add more variety to the text
section of the DPS.

7. Added main image which was intended to dominate the second page of
my DPs however it had to be shrunk down to avoid the image pixelating.

8. Added drop quote and layered it over the main image.

9. Changed gradient again. Added image credit and caption.

10. Cleared images to make way for a new image that will dominate the page.

11. Put text across two pages and left a gap in the middle to represent the
gap between pages.

12. Placed new image and rearranged drop quotes to avoid them clashing with
text. I opted for this image over the previous image because it relates to a
key question in my interview, the questions answer made reference to the
waterfront facing Liverpool so I deemed it appropriate to use an image using
a location that featured this feature.

13. Placed drop quote in column to separate text and added a black box to
back text and recoloured text to help it stand out. An unforeseen error
caused most text to appear pixelated and also removed a small image
used at the top of the page.
