Coming together

Here are the images all compiled together. The one at the top is of the photo and the scanned image together. Next I had to "re-create" the clay pigeon in illustrator. The photo at the bottom is of the photo, scanned image, and illustrator image.

Myself

Below are 2 images of myself shooting. I had to cut myself out of the picture using the pen tool. The picture below was the one that worked the best, however in the photo it did not show any of my torso. I had to compile 2 pictures to form the one you see at the bottom. I used the pen tool on a different photo and compiled my torso to the first photo below.

Scanned Image

Below are a couple of different images that I found in magazines/books to incorporate into my magazine. I chose the first one below. I had to alter the image to have more blue sky by adding a rectangle. The picture below is the one I used, and also has the moderation I made to it. 

Mast Head

Below are some of the mastheads that I narrowed down. The one on the top is the one I am going with.

Rough Cover

Today in class I was able to cut myself out of the photo that I had previously taken. My next step will is to find a suitable background from a magazine or book and scan it into the computer. I will them place the background behind me shooting. On the picture below I also think this is going to be the masthead that I will use for my magazine.

Me Trap Shooting

The next step for our magazine project was to gather photos that we could use on the cover of the magazine. Below are just a few of the pictures I got of me trap shooting.

MastHead

Today in class we got to work on our masthead design. I choose different fonts that I thought would work with my overall magazine.

Wacom Sketch

Today in class we got to use the wacom tablets. This was my first time ever using one. I hope to practice more and improve my skills using them. This is a rough draft of what my magazine will look like.

Mood Board

This is the mood board that I created.  I got the idea to create a magazine cover with the subject being women's trap shooting.

Magazine Cover Mind Map

Today we were told to create a mind map for our next project which will be to design a magazine cover.

Questions:

Who is the target audience? Girls/Young women around the ages 16-25.


What is the name of your magazine? Why? Connotations? TrapGirl. I was thinking of naming it this because it is going to focus on trapshooting and the sport it has become. It will try to intrigue girls and young women to take up this sport and hobby.


What will your masthead look like? Do you have any ideas for fonts? I was thinking about making it be a bold serif type face.


What images will be on the cover and why? Images on the cover will probably include a girl dressed in the attire it requires to shoot, and maybe shooting in action.


What will be your sell lines to entice your target audience? The olympics. Trapshooting today and how competitive it has become

Magazine Ad

For this assignment we were told to find a magazine ad that we thought was interesting and wanted to incorporate ourselves in. I chose this add because I thought it was funny that these people had "real animal heads". What I did first was scan the ad into photoshop. Next I took a picture of myself and also put that in photoshop. After editing the photo I then placed it on top of the magazine add. I then found a picture of a horse head and another picture of a cowboy hat and combined them both for my mask. Finally I put the document into indesign where I added the text "release your wild side".

Understanding Types of Images

For our homework assignment we were told to recreate a handout of Understanding Types of Images. This required us to scan in a image and also editing that image in photoshop. Next we were told to make the document with the pictures and text in indesign.

Google Sketchup House

This is the house I made on Google Sketchup. It's suppose to look the like house I took the 4 pictures of. This was the first time I ever have used Google Sketchup. Overall I am pretty pleased with the outcome.
