Lesson 14



Today we did our first indesign exercise. It was really confusing at first having to remember the different measurements needed to attain the right formatting for that particular page. For example, the right bleed, how many columns, the spaces between each of them and such. After the first part, listening to what Mr cheo had to tech we had time to complete our own magazine page which  is the one above. To create the effect around the MRT picture we had to create a text wrap around the image itself. The different sections were created through the colored text box tool. One very essential part of this magazine creation thing that I overlooked very often was the leading for the font and text. It is very important that the font size was the same as the leading, if not there would be very odd spaces around the article. We had to slowly figure out how to re create the magazine page ourselves, but luckily It didn’t come hard for me.. :b

We also had a brief for our GWA1 today. We were tasked to come up with a 8 page magazine, me and my group have decided to do a magazine based on cafes in singapore.
