PunKed Front Cover Draft - The Making of


I created a new document to start my magazine with, then i used a website designing fonts, urbanfonts.com, after looking into the different font styles, this is the one that i thought was most interesting and relevent to the genre. Using the transform tool on Adobe InDesign CS4, i was able to turn the text by 15degrees.

Once i knew where my masthead was going to be, i started to lay out my straplines, the straplines will be different in each textbox, for example, the top right will be details of an exclusive article in this fortnights edition, something quite possibly in the news, or gossip.

After i had my straplines laid out, i then applied my main imagine, i decided to place the image last because it gave me a way to organise the text boxes. a disadvantage of this is that the main image could be covered by a text box, however i will edit the layout in the final making.
