More details about my preliminary cover

 Following the different cat magazines I found online, I anted to go for a cat against a white coloured back groud which I achieved by using the lasso tool. I tried that but I didn't like the results thus i tried other background colours, and didn't like any one of them so I ended up using the original background 





























I went with with yellow and white colour scheme, but was confused whether to put in more yellow, or more white, so I tried both and went with the first one


 





















I really wanted to add a pug and puff but couldn't decide on the colour but after trying a few of them, i ended up choosing green



Since I liked the green one better I went with that



















At the of completing this cover, the font didn't seem playful enough for a cat magazine so i ended up changing that.

This is the previous font



















This is the final font

Tech magazines try to use a celebrity for their cover or a full shot of the latest technology. A lot of shadows will be seen in ...

Language and Forms of Media

Any media product is made up of a bunch of codes, no matter what the final product is  Of course you must be wondering what on earth are 'codes'. Basically a code is a system of components which gives a proper meaning to something, like captions give meanings to memes Example: In this specific picture, the caption gives a funny meaning to the picture, so basically codes are anything that give meaning to your media product. Some examples include dialogues, captions, body language, lighting. Codes can be further divided into four categories to have a better understanding > Technical code, this includes: Camera Technique  including camera angles, how a camera   is positioned for a specific scene, the distance from an object, and whether the camera is moving or stationary Depth of Field  which measures how much area is covered in one shot Lighting and Exposure  which covers things like whether the lighting is dull or bright . This can make an enormous difference ...
