| My copy of the Total Film cover |
I had to recreate the Total Film magazine cover, shown below, using Photoshop and finding/editing the photos myself. This activity helped me to discover more features on
Photoshop and improve my skills, which I think will help me in my future
coursework, such as the next task which is creating my own film
magazine cover. I knew how to do most of the things required on Photoshop (such as, using using the magnetic lasso to cut out the two actors), but other things I had to do on Powerpoint and then put onto the cover - for example, the "33 star-studded sci-fi movies" part because I didn't know how to make the circles properly in Photoshop.
A problem that I faced while making this was finding the fonts used, which resulted in some fonts not being accurate - for example, I couldn't find the font that was used for "Sci-Fi Preview" so I used the next best one I could find. This also taught me the significance of using many different fonts while keeping the style relevant to what is one the cover, which I will try to use when making my own cover.
