IN DESIGN:

This is my first In Design product. I used all black and white photos of bands to create a simple colour flow, and to boost the professional look of the symmetrical lines used by the ruler tool. I also used the ruler to place the paragraphs into three structured columns. I placed a drop cap at the beginning of the article as it shows the reader where the start of the story is and thins out the look of the amount of text. I made the header a bright orange and red colour to arrest the readers flick ability. It is the biggest font to stand out to show what the article is about. I put in two speech bubbles which are also in a slightly bigger font to give the most interesting information of the article ad highlighting them as important. These speech bubbles also break up the text a little bit, as well. I believe in Unit 3, I can put more detail and colour into my magazine article, and I will be able to get comfortable and use more tools on In Design.
