Production 6- Proof Reading

-

 This week I finished up my entire magazine and put the finishing touches on my magazine. I met up with my group after school to make sure we all had the same fonts, colors, and style throughout the magazine. This process took a little longer than I thought because we had to make sure most of the main things on our magazine were the same. We added our pictures into InDesign and added a drop shadow on them. We changed the colors of the headers to match the light blue background, we made them dark blue with the font Marion. Once our magazines were very similar, we took our own article names and added some of our own creativity into our own magazine.

I learned through this experience how to work professionally with someone and how I can use a camera and be creative by taking action ...

All of our edits to our magazine took place in InDesign where we had the tools to make changes possible. We all changed the background color so that it was all blue, made sure the fonts were the same and the same color. We decided on the font Engravers MT and changed them all to a dark blue. We changed the text bubbles on the cover page to the shape of something in our sport. For example, Aidan used the ellipse tool to create circles for golf balls, I did circles for basketballs and Collin used the pencil tool to draw a ballet shoe for dance. We did the same layout for the cover page, content page and feature articles but rearranged them so that they all look similar. We took better pictures for our magazine to make them look even better. For example, we went to a field and re-did Collins dance shots but mine and Aidan's were already good for our issues. After we made all ...
