Improvements

I have been experimenting with my main photo for my cover, as whilst i was happy with the final layout plan I felt the photo could've been brighter and a bit more vibrant as the colours weren'tt appearing quite how i'd like them to; the screen shot here shows the edited version.


I have also been working on editing my contents photos, editing them to get the colours and effect similar to the cover to help continuity. I have also been adding in the smaller final photos, adding in more pages to the contents lists and editing the layout.

Improvements

I have begun adding in my final photos, this helps me to see where I can add in the extra colour from my cover's colour pallet as I intend to carry this through. Here are screen shots of the progress I have made with adding in my main image, as well as the new white background and layout changes, mainly reguarding the title and it's typography.





I've also created a my final cover:

Improvements

I have decided on a definate layout for my final cover, here is a screen print of it at this stage:


I have also started working on the typography and colour pallet for my contents. I have decided the background for my contents needs to be white to keep it looking cleaner and clearer.


From this point I want to change how the title 'contents' looks as I feel the letters are too far apart and the typography doesnt quite fit the feel I want. However, I intend to add in my final photos before continuing with editing the typography as I want the text to fit well with my photos.

Improvements

I have again experimented with layout and text. I am now certain on the positioning of the main photo and masthead therefore I am working on the layout and typography of the coverlines to give the look i want. the screen print here shows my main idea:

I have also started on my contents, and have decided to change the title to match the masthead for continuity, as the difference in placement and layout will stop it looking to similar. I have also decided to incorporate the 4th colour of red from my covers colour pallet to also help continuity through the pages. This colour also matches elements of my main final photographs.

Improvements

I have been trying to improve the layout of my cover as I feel this is what mainly reduced the overall effect of the appearance I was aiming for. To do this i have experimented with the positioning of the main photo in relation to the coverlines; the screen prints here show this:

I have now added in my final photos to the cover. I have also started to experiment with typography for both the masthead and the coverlines. Here are screen prints of the current changes I have made while experimenting with text and the look with the final photos.
