To make all our editions look like they are from the same magazine, we are going to give the main image on the contents page an outer glow. My edition will have a mint green glow to match with the shadow of the title. The other editions have also done the same thing they have matched the glow with the shadow of their title. I had to change my glow a few times because it wasn’t matching with my group, sometimes it would get too dark and look like an outline rather than a glow. Other times the glow would be too fat, I have now finally finished the glow around my picture and it matches with my groups.
I have started to put my magazine all together and it’s looking good. I’ve edited and put in the images on the front cover and double page. The background through the whole magazine is black this makes the mint green title stand out, attracting the audience. Also on the front cover I have added a bottom strip and a slogan. On the Double page article I have put in the lyrics column and I’ve don’t the title, all I have to do for the double page is write out an article. After that I will start to work on the contents page, I have chosen the image for the contents page. I really like this image because it has good expressions. The image is a high angle shot and in the image the girl is looking upwards which makes it look like she is looking at the reader. This gives it a realistic effect.

So that all our issues look like they're from the same magazine we are keeping the slogan and some of the other conventions the same. For example on all the front covers there is a black background, a bottom strip, and the same title just a different background shade. Also on the double page article all the issues will have a lyrics column on the left handside. By doing this hopefully all our issues will look like they're from the same magazine. So that if put on a shelf in a shop next to other magazine's no one would suspect it's not a real magazine.
