Evaluation

Finally finished the Front cover and Contents page, it was hard from the beginning just getting used to using Indesign and Photoshop, the first time i had properly used both as well. Still now its gets a little confusing, but you learn new stuff each lesson, and i now know the basics to each application.
The front cover went OK i think, from designing the logo i had started to struggle, but once i had it done, everything went well from there. However i would take more variety of pictures if i were to do this task again, as i thought they were not the best of pictures, but they did work at least. Thinking of the layout was the hardest past, especially for the front cover, not so much the contents page. But i kept the colour scheme and font scheme going well, and made sure there wasn't any mistakes with that. The contents page was easier and i managed to get it complete quite quickly. The only thing i kept messing up on was the blocks of colour, it gets quite annoying when your trying to place everything where you want it and perhaps it wont go there as easy as you want it to. But once i completed both the only thing was to change the files in export to jpegs. So overall i think the task went well, but not brilliant, if i were to do it again, i would appraoch each thing differntly and think about the layout more in detail, so i knew what i was doing and how i would do it. That way i wouldn't get myself annoyed or worked up about certain things, like the pictures, or the layout.
