This is the finished re-cover
This is the original next to mine.
When creating the boxes for my re-cover I used Object styles to save my object styles, this allows me to save my drop shadow and colour into a style so when i comes to creating the next box, i can just click the style I want and then it puts it onto the new shape.
When creating the text for my magazine cover I used the character styles box to save my text styles so the next time I go to create a font I can just click the style i want and it does it instantly, instead of getting all the options and sizes the same, this saved me time whilst creating this cover.
These are the alignments I used when creating my magazine these really helped to get everything perfectly inline such as the title because with the ruler I could make sure I got the right size text, and it was good for the getting the rectangles in the right places/angles.
While creating the rectangles and font down the left hand side of the page I took the editing boxes down to the side so I could easily access the boxes whilst zoomed in, this helped me getting the right text sizes because I could edited them whilst zoomed in so i got a better view of what I'm doing.
When creating the 'Free Kurt Poster' image in the top corner I got a image of Morgan Freeman and edited his face onto Kurt's face, I did this by cutting out Kurt's face and then putting Morgan Freeman's face inside it and changed the blending layer.
When starting my magazine I added my image I did this by clicking 'file' then 'place' then i pulled he image across the page whilst holding down 'shift' so it doesn't stretch the image.
