Preleminary task

This week for media i have been looking at designing my own school magazine in the programme Indesign, having never used this programme before i learnt some of the basic skills of the programme from Mr Wallis and had a go at making a practice school magazine as i would have to make one for my coursework, some of the skills i learnt were how to fit images to the frame of the picture and how to get text behind some parts of the image as you can see in my attempt, i also learnt how to cut out any white space and backgrounds in a image in want to put on my magazine, as well as some basics such as texts and colours.
now that i have an understanding of the software I can now use it with more comfort.
Here is my first go bellow, i decided to go for a D.T magazine as no one else was thinking of doing it and i wanted mine to look different from other peoples.

  3. Good Connor, get into the habit of blogging after each session or when you are working on your coursework.
    Focus on what you were aiming to achieve, how you went about it, how you changed / solved problems - what did you learn?
