Evaluation

So far I have created a cover for a student magazine in Adobe InDesign. I found it quite confusing and difficult to use the program at first but enjoyed playing with the colours and designs of the cover once I figured out the correct buttons. I think my cover is quite eye-catching and colourful although I changed the colours and text around a lot before I chose the final layout. I chose a light and dark blue theme to appeal to both genders and a wider range of students. I decided on the photo of two students for my cover photo because I thought it represented students well and it was a good shot to use. I think that i could have made my left hand side a bit more exciting and clear as it was quite busy. 

I also created a contence page for my student magazine also in Adobe InDesign. I though it was easier to make the contence because I already vaguely new how to work the program and I used a similar colour theme of dark blue, to my front cover. Although I changed the style of my boxes and numbering around a lot, I chose edgy boxes and numbers to make it more stylish. I think i could have taken some pictures to relate to the pages to make it more interesting though.
