Lesson 26

FINAL POST

All at once, we are at the last post of this blog. It has been a great time documenting my experiences. This lesson, like the lesson before, we worked on our group project. I'm almost done with everything, and it feels really good seeing the fruit of my hard work come to life. I feel like a proud dad of my baby magazine page hahaha. With the advice of our tutor, I was able to correct and improve my work to make it as good as it looks now. Here it is, my pride and joy:

There might be a few slight adjustments here and there, but other than that, my work here is done. With a heavy heart, I shall sign off for the last time :)

This is it for this blog. I thank you from the bottom of my heart for taking the time to bear through its good and its bad. Thank you.

Lesson 25

Putting the pieces together

In this lesson, I spent my time putting my pictures and background together in InDesign, trying my best to to fit them in neatly and nicely. I also searched for a relevant story to put as my text. My magazine pages are taking space, and soon I will have my text up and going as well. Here is my progress till now. It's not that much yet, but with effort, I will make it happen. 

I will continue working on it to make it better. 

This is it for this post. Thank you!

Lesson 24

Group Project

In this lesson, we worked on our group project. I was able to get a cool looking back ground, basketball player and basketball hoop to put in my magazine pages. Using photoshop, I edited and enhanced the images so that would fit together in the magazine. For example, I changed the brightness of the background and did a few other adjustments to make it more fitting. I also cropped the basketball player out of the background and did some adjustments to its brightness and other minor changes. Here are the different images I have to put in place altogether: 

I had trouble cropping my images to the focus and sizes that I wanted, but I persevered and got what I wanted in the end.

This is it for this post. Thank you!

Lesson 23

The Absence

In this lesson.. Well I was actually absent for this lesson because I had a 5-day MC from a teeth sugery. But nevertheless, I asked my classmates about what they did for class and I heard that they worked on their group project. I haven't done much since our tutor approved my group's grids, but once I'm all well and fit again I'll definitely work well and hard on my magazine pages. Here is the draft that I have that will be my guide: 

This is it for this post. Thanks!
