Diary Entry Ten

Today I have finally put my contact sheets of my photoshoot onto my blog. Of all the images i took, only a few will actually feature in my magazine. In my contact sheet it is obvious to see on certain ones why i havent used them as they are either blurry, not focused, or would clearly not work well in my magazine. Also, i have completed my contents and double page spread drafts. I have chosen to sketch these drafts and scan them into the computer as i find it easier than using photoshop, and also i will be using photoshop on the final piece so i want my final piece to look a lot better than my draft. I have sketched down my ideas for my pages and how i roughly want them to look. The sketches do not look like much at the moment, but once i start using my actual images and text in photoshop, it will all come together and finally look like a page from a magazine.

Double page spread draft

This post shows my sketch of my double page spread for my magazine which I then scanned into the computer. I sketched this image so that I had a basic structure to go by and to get my ideas down on paper so that I dont forget them.

Contents Draft

This is a sketch i drew of my contens page which i then scanned into the computer, so that i could show my ideas on paper from the beginning of the process and have a basic layout to go by.
