Magazine Photoshop Tutorial

Firstly I learnt that you have to get the right length and the right width for a magazine cover- this will make it more realistic. Also with the right width and length you would be able to fit in all the key conventions for the magazine. Then you select the background and then you can choose what colour you want. Also You could also add extra effects to the magazines cover (Spotlight in the centre) the way this is done to select the first layer and click on the brush and choose how thick you want it. Then you click on the 'T' to add add all the text you want and you have to have separate layers for text in different areas. If you want to add images then you have to open a new tab and you download the file and convert to a Jpeg and insert to the magazine cover.  If you want make any image bigger you have to click on the different layer which is very complicated but you do get used to it. As I used Photoshop last year and got the hang of it.  If you want to change the colour of any text you have to click on the text layer if you change your mind at the end of the process. If you want to delete the layer- you have to double click on the layer and click on the bin sign on the bottom left. If you want to add any slogan you have to click on the TEXT that's how you add another layer and you could change the font type by clicking on the tab on the top of the bar.
