Firstly I have added both images I may potentially use into one document. Then I have created a new layer for the background.

Next I have filled in the background layer for the base of my magazine cover. This was completed by using the bucket tool to fill the whole area in the same colour.

I have started to add in the title by choosing the font that I previously decided to use. This was DFKai-SB.

I have used the transform tools to change the width and height of the title. I have stretched it out so it fits the area that I wanted it to.

Next I have added in the ‘Film’ part of the title. I have used the tools on Photoshop to turn it around so it fits my design.

I have now added in the magazine website. I have placed this just below the magazine title on the left hand side as placed on my design.

I have added in the date, price and issue number of the magazine. This was completed by using the text tool in Photoshop.

Next I have added in the ‘Exclusive Interview’ text on the left had side of the magazine cover.

I have now added in extra information on the left hand side which is conventionally found on a magazine cover. However, I may change the text in it. This is so it is more suited to the intended magazine genre.

Next I have added in the circle where I will add extra information. This was completed by using the circle shape tool in the tools bar.

Next I have added text into the circle. I have used this convention as it is eye catching and stands out from the other items on the magazine ccver.

Then I added in the ‘Plus’ text on the left hand side to provide extra information relating to the film.

I have now inserted in the image as a new layer. I have also removed the image background so the pale magazine cover background is visible.

I have created a barcode by using the rectangle tool and lines tool.

I have changed the colour of the rectangle to white by using the colour fill bucket. I have then used the lines tool to add in the black lines.

I then added in the numbers onto the barcode. This was the last part that I had to complete to create my first magazine cover draft.
