Final Cover

After working very hard to craft the perfect cover to represent my magazine, I've finally finished it to full completion. Here is my final cover below:

I used Photoshop to create the entire cover composition, adding in my text, and editing it by adding a slight overlay and drop shadows behind the text to make them stand out against the background. I took this photo in my home, in my designated set, which I showed in full in one of my previous blog posts, "Permissions".

I feel like my expectations throughout the process of making this cover really changed. As I continued to tweak my cover, I realized and implemented many things that really helped to elevate the look and feel of my cover, and overall I am very happy with how the final turned out.

Here a picture of my cover's draft:

I feel like, in terms of editing and composition, I really improved, and I am very happy with the results.
