Here is my final mock up my magazine cover that I've tried to recreate of XXL magazine. On the left hand side is the orginal XXL cover and on the right is my mock up that I have created using indesign. Through this process I have learned various things. I have learnt that I should put the picture first before anything else so it is easer to decide what size of the masthead, coverlines etc. I have also learnt how to use new software such as photoshop and how to make the background transparent so i am able to recreate the orginal cover. Overall I am happy with the main image and the finished cover. I definately found this process useful before creating my own magazine cover to make you realize the time management that you need. This has helped prepare to create my own music magazine cover using different softwares and has helped me further understand the codes and conventions of a music magazine cover which will help when im in the process of making my own.
