For our induction activity we had to try and copy the front cover of heat magazine above to the closest possible extent we could, It was hard to get the same mast head as the magazine as they are the only ones who are permitted to have it but the rest of it can pretty much be copied.
One of the tools I used was the polygonal lasoo tool that allows you to cut out pictures such as the way that ashley cole and a bit of cheryls head has been cut around at the top so that the picture is not getting in the way but you can still see them clearly.
Another tool I used was the shapes tool as there are some that you need to replcate it such as the arrow at the top right.
Another tool I used was the text box tool as it is needed on probably every magazine cover to create the text used such as the big headlines to the small website at the side of the heat mast head.
The Mast head was impossible to replicate as heat magazine are the only ones who have the exact copy of this font so we had to compromise and settle for the nearest we could get too it.
The exact barcode could not be copied either but you can get ones that look similar enough and not many people tend to examine the barcode that much when there reading a magazine they more look at the pictures and headlines.
The big headlines and small ones could be copied as them fonts are ones that we can gain access to so they could be done quite close to the actual magazine covered.
The pictures could sometimes be copied such as the marly and me one and some of the smaller pictures but the one of cheryl and ashley was exclusive to heat so that one could not be found or used.
