Barcode For The Cover
The following is a screenshot of the barcode that i used on the main cover. i didn't feel the need to use photoshop to edit it as i thought it looked fine how it was.
Recurring Colours
Recurring colours
For my contents page and Cover, i have used the same background colour which is red. i have done this consistently so that it looks professional
i have also used the same font and effects for the title of both covers.

Trainspotting Homework
Trainspotting
The scene opens with a shot of the main character on the floor. non-digetic sound is heard as there is a voice over. because this is right at the start this is used to create the scene. when he stands up, there is music being played from what seems like a radio, a baby is heard and his footsteps. the music playing is parrell as it isnt an upbeat song or anything, its just a normal, low, quiet song. all this combined with the look of the scene makes it look like a horrible dirty place to live in. Digetic dialogue is used here between the main character and "Mother Superior" as he states that he is going to be quitting drugs, he talks about "Sean Connery" and "Moral Fibre" which have no connection with Drugs. this could be used for a comedic effect. near the end of the scene there is non-deigetic sound which is a voice over of the main character saying "we called him mother superior due to the length of his habit, of course i was going to have another shot, after all i had work to do"
the scene then cuts to the title of the movie with the sound of a train, the sound is non-digetic and makes us, as the audience, wonder what drugs, or this group of people have in relation to trainspotting.
There is a sound bridge that links the previous scene to this new one. the scene opens with non-digetic music and digetic sounds, such as the front door opening. there is then more non-digetic sound heard as a voice over begins to speak. it talks about how to quit this certian type of drug, and what methods to use, he lists things such as "one room, which you will not leave", "Mushroom soup, 8 tins of" and "1 bucket for urine, one for feces and one for vomiting" the buckets are the highlights as during a withdrawal lapse, you will do all of these things involuntarily, but because there is non-parrell music playing, as it doesn't match the scene, it makes it funny because it almost sounds like he is on a cooking show. it doesn't match how bad all of this is really going to be. all of this creates a comedic effect which will make the audience laugh, after all this is done, the very end of the scene is the main character, being given drugs by a stranger, the comedy in this scene comes from how in his head, he doesnt sound angry, saying "This was typical of Mikey Forrester" and then exclaiming out loud "What the fuck are these"

More BackGround removal and paint tool
15/10/15
Today i worked on removing more of the back ground of my original, i did this through photoshop by hiding the other lays, and using the Eraser and magic wand tool. i am doing this because the back ground is pointless as the main focal point of the image is the student and the sander machine.
I also decided to change the colour of my back ground. i did this by selecting the back ground layer, and changing the gradient to red. i did this because the schools uniform is red\Burgundy.
i did this by using the paint bucket tool.

Drop Shadow effect and contour
For my Text, i used a drop shadow effect and Contour. i did this to make it look professional, and it is easier to read than if it was just plain.
This is the difference between plain and drop shadow and contour.
I did this with all my text so that my work is consistant, professional and the house style stays the same throughout

Photoshop tools used
Yesterday, i used photoshop to create my front cover. because my original photo was a bit to big i had to crop it so it was a medium close up shot.
I finished off the magazine with an image of The Wedding Singer logo, because the schools theatre department are doing it for a show. The final cover is beneath this.
When i was done cropping i create a new page layout and matched the picture to the A4 paper layout i had. when i finished this started to work on my text. down below is the text tool logo.
i started first with the Mast Head which i put at the very bottom of the page. i did this because if it was at the top it would go over the actors faces, which is okay but i already have a little bit of his head cut off at the top.

School Magazine Photo
Changes to photo
Mise En Scene
Location - i have decided against my original idea of having the photograph in IT5, and instead have gone for the photo in DT, i still have a student doing work, but this time he will be using the sander machine, i do this to show the wide available resources the school has, such as a fantastic Design Technology Department.
Actors - For this shot, i have decided to use a sixth form student, i have done this because the student was easier to access, the prop will be a sander, a lab coat and Goggles, this is to show that every student has things for their own safety when handling this equipment
Camera shot - the shot will still be a medium close up and will be a normal camera height
Costumes - the costume for this shoot will be a lab coat from the DT room and glasses.
props - for this photo i will use a sander machine, this is because it is typically associated with Design Technology
Narrative - for this, i am trying to show the wide array of resources the school has, and the curriculum the school has to offer, the costume will show that the school has a lot of safety measures in place, showing the care for their students
