print screens of creating final product

I firstly uploaded my photo into Photoshop, I choose a medium close up of my friend Emily.
I decided this image didn't have enough space above her head to insert a mast head and subtitle, skyline and email address of the college magazine so therefore I opened another similar photo copied the top of it and inserted it into my chosen photo this created more space above.




 Result of me adding another image on my chose image
I then added a Mast Head which for my magazine is 'FRESH' and a subtitle 'your guide to college gossip' I used different fonts for each one. For the mast head I used the font eras medium with a size of 110  wanted it to be big so it's easy to read, recognisable and modern.
For the subtitle I also used the same font but smaller so it didn't look as important. For both the mast head and the subtitle I used a stroke effect to make it look bolder.

Then I added a skyline to the top of the image in Georgia style, the only other font I am using to keep it professional and easy to read.I used a thin orange slightly transparent box behind my skyline information. The writing on my skyline I mad crisp white so it's easily read on the orange.


On the bottom left of my image I inserted an image of a bar code
after this I created a box above this to give me enough room to add a price and issue number.

Under this I added photo credit
For the teasers and kickers that I'm putting on the right third I'm doing a range of things.I have created three main stories, the most important one is about the student in the picture. This story is bigger then the rest but shares the same two fonts. The kickers for each stories are again in Georgia and the teasers in eras medium ict. 
The boxes underneath these stories are a range of colours already used on the magazine. The teasers also all have the same size stoke effect to keep it consistent. All colours are similar to my house style to keep it consistent and professional.

I used these colours including the colour of the students top, black and white.

 
FINAL PRODUCT.
