Here was the third tutorial and were learning how to do <divs>+container. where we could add images to our background and the page its self. I don't think this was how is supposed to look but i couldn'y figure out how to fix it.


This was the 1st tutorial where we where learning how to edit headings and creating links.

The first critique helped me a lot seeing thing i couldn't see before, and so i got rid of some text, so much unnecessary color, and so much busyness. I also added the little vector circle to balance out with the main article and to direct the eye to the image. I also created emphasis on the word Eliminate, so the erasing of the face would make more sense. The first critique also made me realize that the type behind the face was not needed. I also changes the masthead font to a more taller one because on my previews masthead i had stretched my masthead, wich we are not suppose to do. I also fixed the hand made it softer and lighter and added a bit of shadowing so it looked more like it was over the face.
This was my first attempt but it seemed to busy and the focal point was very hard to find.
I was also having trouble with the "appearance anxiety" text at the bottom and i didn't know what to do with it.



I erased part of the face, and added writing of insecurities. 
I tryied different colors for the background but i think the white seem more serious. 
I desaturated the images and made emphasis on the eraser by leaving the color, since the main article was about how to get rid of the pressure of being beautiful. 

My picture and scanned image brought up to photoshop.



The three images above were my vector images.

This one was my picture

This was my scanned image.

MASTHEADS

For my magazine tittle i wanted to do a simple clean design with a little bit of interest by adding the "brain neurons" at the beginning of the tittle. I think this design would attract an older more sophisticated audience. None of this mastheads ended up working for the actual magazine but it did gave me an idea of what type face i wanted to use.

Magazine Sketches


For my magazine cover I want to show a disease of people being scare of breakfast, I want to show that it is a mind problem, and so i kind of want to draw a brain in illustrator and incorporated some how, i was thinking that instead of a person popping out of the cup, and maybe a fork going through it to show how frustrating a phobia can be.


In this sketch my teacher gave me permission to focus more on the phycological aspect of the magazine rather than food and breakfast as originally thought. 
In this sketch i am moving on into something more different, by putting image at the left of my magazine.
