When creating the front page of my preliminary task i knew a few conventions of magazines through my own experience of them. I knew i should include a banner which i constructed using the 'auto-shapes' feature on microsoft publisher and 'grouping' three rectangles of different widths together. In the bottom left-hand corner i used the symbol of my school as a design element that would become part of my brand identity. However it doesn't look very professional, i tried to manipulate the image to be brighter using 'Paint' but as you can see it didn't turn out very well. Also, the picture i used appeared 'squashed' on my front page as i did not know how o 'crop' the picture effectively. I included a barcode and feature stories which are also conventions of magazines.
My preliminary contents page was not too bad, i included my own pictures as well as page numbers and a slogan. The title is another example of image manipulation gone wrong, by this point i had decided i would not use 'Paint' as a way of manipulating images for my final magazine. I got my background from gooogle images.
