Cover...

This is my finished magazine cover. 

Although I used the template shown previously to help me achieve this, some changes were made throughout the process. 

I used a website called 'Pic Monkey' which helped me edit my photo to make it look more eery and more like a Halloween magazine. I did this by changing the colour and tone of the picture and making it more blurry. I also did subtle changes such as putting spiders on the tree and placing a grave stone over a bin in the background. 

I also needed to crop the bottom of the photo to make it mid-shot. 

I changed the colour of the Masthead as you could not read it when it was black so it is now white. 

The colour of the articles vary between green and orange, these are typical colours you would find relating to Halloween. I gave the outside of the text a glow so that they stand out from the dark background.
