            In my digital media class we had an assignment about what we wanted to be famous for. We had to make magazine covers, and think of ideas and headlines for the magazine cover. We were taught how to use adobe photo shop also use the magic wand, to cut out, and also how to use the text box and how to make a background. Also how to use the blending options which was fun to do. Before making our magazine we had to write down what kind of magazine I want, and what I wanted to be famous for. Then I had to think of Ideas of headlines I wanted to be on the magazine.

            My magazine has New York in the background and with black lettering with a yellow glow for the outline of the letters. I have me in the front of the letters, and my magazine was teen magazine. Its pretty because the background is New York  at night, it has lights open and looks very good.

            What I was trying to communicate through my magazine is that if you stick your mind to whatever you want to be you can do it. Never let anyone say you can’t do something you love doing. If you work hard enough you’ll be successful. I tried to communicate that meaning by the way I look, and also by, me being a young singer it shows that if you work hard enough you can do anything.

            By looking at the rubric I think I did great, I did what it was asking. I was prepared, always on time and did everything was asked. I took notes when was needed to do.  My magazine was appropriate and understanding to read what I was famous for. I used blending options and also blended the titles and have headlines related to my magazine.  This project was fun to do and great to learn how to use photo shop. I had a great experience by learning how to make magazines.
