Photoshop Project: Magazine Cover

Goal: Use Photoshop to create a realistic magazine cover. Create all elements (other than bar code) from scratch.

Cover Elements 1

Masthead and Sell Line

The Masthead contains the name of the magazine. It can be a simple typeface, but it usually is a designed logo.

The Sell Line is a short phrase or sentence to attract the reader. “The Modern Guide to Movies” tells the reader what the magazine is about, and who it will appeal to. /h1>

    Cover Elements 2

  • A splash is a badge that doesn’t strictly follow the layout of the cover. Here, it’s a ring of stars with text in the middle. It could also be a solid shape.
  • Cover lines tell the reader the stories to expect inside. The largest cover lines almost always connect to the main picture on a cover.
  • The barcode is  the price code for the magazine. There are websites that will let you generate a barcode, but for this project it will probably be easier to download a premade image
