Adobe InDesign

During the past few weeks we have been learning how to use several Adobe products which will help make our magazine look professional and efficient. First we used Adobe Photoshop, then most recently we used Adobe InDesign. InDesign is used to create high end newspapers and magazines and will be crucial in making our magazine look as professional as possible. The software allows us to correctly position, align and efficiently organise images and text. But even before opening this essential software we are given options, whether we want guidelines on the page, whether we want gutters, borders, what size we want and how many pages. InDesign is extremely useful when you come to add text, spacing it out giving every page a organised professional look. 

This was the double page spread  I managed to create using  InDesign within an hour, the software is hard to get your head around at first but once you know the basics you are flying. The text is neatly organised into three columns, with a quote from the text in the middle, a sub heading and a heading,they all make my double page spread look as professional as possible.
