The image on the left is the first draft of the cover of my magazine while the image on the right is the first revision of the cover of my magazine. I created the first draft with Photopea. Everything was created within the program with the exception of the background image, which was found on Google Images. When making the first revision, I moved away entirely from Photopea and made use of Canva. With a change in software, I decided to build the revision from the ground up by using a template to help with the structure.
The text found on both versions of the magazine cover is the same; the title, tagline, and article teasers remained the same. However, the colors, fonts, orientation, and placement have all been changed. The title remained at the top of the page while the teasers and tagline have switched places. The colors I used for the text have changed drastically. Instead of the various blues used in the draft, I used a blue-gray. This made the text on the cover more legible. Along with changes made in the text, I changed the background image used in the cover. In the first draft, I found the background image on Google Images. In the first revision, I found the background image on Canva. Compared to the first draft, there is a lot less information in the image, which makes the cover less cluttered and distracting. This helps to draw attention to the important aspects of the cover, such as the content of the text.
