I aim to have 2 covers and 2 single page contents pages that are filled with director based ideas but also about upcoming films and how they are made / what process the crew have to go through to make them. My contents page will have titles that refer to these things with short comments under each of them explaining briefly what the title refers to. My front covers will have images of upcoming directors on it with fitting headlines to match the main image the will also cover the main codes and conventions of a normal magazine using the barcode in the bottom corner of the front cover with the price and the date all together.

Method

Initially I started by creating the masthead in illustrator using the pen tool. Had the thought of going for the name 'direct' from the start and with experimentation added the clapper as the letter C because I felt it made that very obvious Link then to the magazine itself and didn't look out of place at all. After landing on a design I liked I then moved that design into adobe indesign to create the main layout of my magazine. I started by creating the bones of the front cover adding the text and the masthead to get an idea of where my images would go when I had taken them. After this I moved onto doing this for all of my...
