One tool I decided to use when constructing my contents page was the lasso tool and I then created this particular piece of the picture as a new level. I was then able to change the brightness of my models skin in order to pull her out from the picture and make her stand out. I feel that this has worked well and she stands out from the background as I left the background as quite dark. Below I have shown how I changed the brightness and contrasts. I did this by going to image and adjustments and then selecting brightness and contrast.
Once I had finished editing my photo I opened InDesign and started to create my contents. As my contents page was going to be almost wholly a picture there was not too much in the making of it.
Once I had placed in the picture I decided to add my text. I wanted the picture to the side as my front cover picture was centred. I first had to create the text. The picture below shows the changing of the colour of my text and how I did this. I decided to use the colours of White and Red as it continues with the colour scheme of my magazine and goes with the colours of the picture.
I then added the border which I then arranged to go to the back. Here you can see that I did this by selecting the line too and then changing the 'pt' of it to make it thicker and change it from a single line to a thick background border for the text to go in front of as it gives a greater impact as the text would have sunk into the background of the picture.
