Requirements of the brief

You work for an independent media production company. You have been given the task of producing

the front cover and contents page(s) of the first two editions of a new style magazine that is

being launched by Condé Nast and two pages for the working website for the magazine.

Contents pages can be either single or double page spread.

The web pages must promote the new magazine to its target audience and enable fans to interact

with the content.

Initial inspiration:

Creating this poster was an opportunity to not only share my favourite things, but also learn and practice skills on photoshop.
I included my favourite albums and the Spotify logo as I thoroughly enjoy listening to a range of music and therefore it is one of my most frequently used apps. In my down time, I also like to stream tv shows/films on Netflix and my favourite film is a 90s rom-com called '10 things I hate about you'.
I am currently re-teaching myself how to play the guitar, after many years, and hope to some day own my own electric guitar which has been included in the top right corner.
My favourite flowers are tulips, from which I was able to remove the background and create the image of them sprouting up from the bottom of the page.
When doing this task, we used different layers to add to the complexity of the poster, and were shown to cut out a circular shape from one of the base colours in order to show the picture underneath. This was one of many skills I gained completing this activity.
