day 18: i have researched on how to highlight texts and apparently it turned out pretty good. so this is my second draft of my contents page. yesterday was a struggle on how to get the texts to been seen through the various colours of the background. 

day 17: i have to admit. i'm getting pretty good at this. although sometimes my goals takes longer than it has to. but i have looked at a lot of examples on basketball magazines and i noticed they sometime use an object for a letter so that is what i did on my contents page. the ball is suppose to be the 'O' in the words content. through out this 7 days, i've learned how to download fonts therfore i have applied my new skills to this artwork. now i will add some finishing touches or what people call them "the icing on the cake."

day 10: i have been awake for 72 hours learning and reading every fundamentals and basics. i am now like the micheal jordan of photoshop. not really. on a serious note i think i got far from where i started and i feel like the bill gates of photo editing. but i don't think this is going to be my final form since some of my friends don't think it would suit my audience. i am now learning to download fonts; i will come back bigger, stronger and faster.

day7: the struggle is real. the last progress lead to a dead end. this is the new one. i have decided to make in black and white to go for that vintage theme but kept the ball and the blue stripes in colour since they were the only two colours that stood out the most. the masthead has been added to the progress and things are going good going great. now i will add the rest of the fundamentals.

day 3: i have gone far from where i started, but its not enough. i still havn't figured out how to photo shop a ball and make it small to put in this picture. i am still struggling to use photoshop. i have no idea how long it will take me to figure it out, how long will it take to finish the whole magazine but i will complete it. i am planning to put the mast head soon when i figure out how to put the text behind the image.

day 1: it took me 6 hours just to crop this photo alone and it wasn't even perfect. i still got a long way to go to learn photo shop because i literally have no idea how to do anything. but wait a few weeks. i'll be back.

My photos

These pictures are the pictures I took for the magazine. Before and after I added the effects. Each of these pictures have there own meaning. Most of these means that even though a player is in school studying, they are always ready to play ball.
