Magazine Cover Design Reflection
The purpose of this project is to create your own magazine cover. To start off we completed a worksheet that gathered and organized our ideas on what we wanted our cover to look like, to say etc. Then, we familiarized ourselves with the tools and functions of Photoshop. After this, we began working on our magazine.
My magazine is similar to a medicine/health magazine. I chose a hospital corridor as the background because its very relatable to my topic. The title of it is Medicine. It includes headlines you would find in health magazines such as “ 100 Tips to Staying Healthy” or “Tylenol doses should be reduced to prevent Liver risk”. It isn’t too colorful and it includes a picture of myself from my waist above in the middle of the page.
Since I would like to pursue a career in the medical field, I tried to communicate a cover representing just that. The headlines and background helped communicate this meaning.
I believe my finished piece is successful. I think so because I lack skill with computers and am
very new to projects like this. Although I could improve on the creativity area of my magazine, I believe
I did well for my first time .
