PRODUCTION: Front page cover

Not a great deal of detail has changed from this point, but the most distinctive alterations have to be the magazine masthead "INSURGENCE", the page headline, and the usage of fonts for the cover lines featured. Instead of the usual motorway-style font for the black cover line titles, I used a more urban font to make the articles stand out in front of audiences. After playing around with Photoshop's font-editing options for the masthead, I carefully decided to add in a drop shadow and a relevant outline to the title in order to make it distinctive and highlightable to others. The end result: a blazing headline of fury, as connoted by its incessant shade of red. The same can be applied to the headline involving Shereen, the page's cover girl; I applied a rough chiselled effect to the headline and even a drop shadow to make it stand out and look three dimensional, completely enhancing the overall aesthetic of the magazine front page cover.
