Step 1 Firstly i placed the photo into the main focus and locked the layer so it can move, i also used the cropping tool is the imagery was closer up.

Step 2 Another aspect that we used was colour correction to make the mans face black and white, we altered gradient, shadowing, and the saturation to cause his face to stand out, in addition this colouring conforms to the horror genre, therefore the main focus is dans face

Step 3 I then downloaded a text and enlarged it, placing it in the order electric sheep magazine; used, moreover we used the colouring of black and red to conform to what this magazine, giving a professional feel towards our magazine cover

Step 4 After this we successfully attempt to make the box of text in the bottom left hand corner red, but transparent, this is an aspect that we found very difficult, however we did this by getting a separate image of dan and cropping the bottom left hand corner of his chin to place on top of the imagery we used, we used effects to put a transparent layer on top of this, and used the colouring of red, we then placed this on top of the imagery that we was working on to create a transparent box.

Step 5 we then placed text over this transparent box to highlight what would be included within this issue on the new film the Final Plea , this is an aspect that we wrote our self.

Step 6 we placed a white box at the bottom, as every electric sheep magazine includes this , and placed individual text on top, we used the colours red and black to connoted a sense of danger as red as connotations of blood.

After finishing the magazine there is some aspects that I found challenging and others I excelled in. The aspects that I found challenging was I had never used Photoshop before, and I found it difficult to work out what tools functions were,however I managed to produce a magazine that looks professional and very similar to the original electric sheep magazine, however made it our own original copy. An aspect that I did find particularly challenging was the creation of the transparent box within the corner. however eventually i was able to do this. an aspect that i am really proud of is being able to create a magazine without ever using this software before, however i enjoyed the challenge, and glad that i have gain new skills during my A2 production.
