After i adjusted the brightness and contrast of my image on Photoshop, I added my image of my model onto my front cover.
I then changed my header 'FUSION' to be smaller so it didn't take up as much room on my front cover, I then moved it further down so it slightly covered my models head. I then added the effect 'Drop Shadow' to my header to create a 3D effect. I then inserted a rectangle and filled it white, i placed it underneath my header and made sure that my header was slightly over the white box so that it looked like it flowed and so it looked professional. I then inserted the text 'Its your life. Its your time' and made the 'your' italic, this had the effect of the reader feeling like the magazine is talking to them as they're saying its theres.
I removed some of my text as my front cover was getting too cluttered and looked disorganised. I also added the 'Plus 559 Style hits' I made each of the words different fonts as this was following the ideas of Glamour. Plus is 'Lucida Handwriting', 559 is 'Kannada' and Style hits 'Impact'. I added this as my magazine was aimed at teenage girls and teenage girls are more likely to want to read about styling hits. I also added 'Hands up who wants pretty clothes?' underneath, the rhetorical question makes teenage girls especially think that they will gain pretty clothes if they read this magazine which is more likely to draw them into buying my magazine.
I also added the reward sell line 'Win! FREE Topshop Voucher'. As Topshop is a popular teenage girl retail shop, I thought this would grab their attention and encourage them to buy my magazine if there was a chance that they would win this voucher. Lastly, I went on to add my bar-code which i downloaded from the internet - this was to ensure that my front cover looked as professional as Glamour.

I then added a quotation to break up my text in the middle of my article. This was also taken from the Glamour magazine that I liked the look of. I went on to then adding the caption underneath where my image would be at the bottom of the first page to give the reader the indication of what the image was linked to and give more information to what the article there about to read is about. I then added the page number at the bottom right hand corner and the name of my magazine and month - this adds effect as it creates more of a professional look as most magazines have page numbers.
