Final Magazine Color Scheme

 


Welcome back to my blog!

So, last time I published the updated layout of my content page. Today we're going to be explaining that chocie of color and exactly why I'm going with an Orange, Black, and White color scheme. First things first, I believe these colors harmonize very well with each other, we see them all the time used during events like halloween, plus black and orange are one of the most common color combinations that people use. 

I ended up choosing a split-complementary color scheme if you remember what that is from my previous post about color scheme and more importantly color theory, but if you don't that's fine, let me refresh your memory.  

  • Split-Complementary Scheme- Combination of the complementary and analogous color schemes that places complementary colors by each other, with a buffer between them being a different color from the color wheel. This is meant to reduce the contrast between the complementary colors which could be harsh or distasteful to the eye.

So, black and white are complete opposites, one is the epitome of darkness the other of light, which makes them complementary colors. Complementary colors are colors that are complete opposites of each other. In this case, the orange in my color scheme is that "buffer between them" which is a completely different color on the color wheel. 

 Goodbye, and see you soon with another update!

Compulsory Question 4

 Welcome back to my blog! Today I will be answering compulsory question 4. Prezi Presentation:  https://prezi.com/p/-ovwsyoexlzb/?present=1 Prezi Video: https://prezi.com/v/y4em-lccoiy7/ Transcript   Hello, my name is David Martinez, my candidate number is 1421, my center number is US154, and today I will be answering compulsory question 4 for my AICE Media Studies Class.  Compulsory Question 4 asks, how did you integrate technologies - software, hardware, and online - in this project? To which I have to say, throughout this project, technology in the form of hardware, software, and online websites were heavily ingrained in the entire production of my magazine from the first blog to the entire final magazine. Without technology, I would have been unable to complete any of the tasks required of me. Software such as PhotoShop and the game Elden Ring helped me in the creation of my magazine. PhotoShop allowed me to edit and remove the background of the photos that I took, and the game Eld

Compulsory Question 3

 Welcome back to my blog! Today I will be answering Compulsory Question 3. Prezi Presentation:  https://prezi.com/p/vz7yt4yqhl6e/?present=1 Prezi Video: https://prezi.com/v/j_qaogdenhl0/ Transcript  Hello, my name is David Martinez, my candidate number is 1421, my center number is US154, and today I will be answering compulsory question 3 for my AICE Media Studies Class.  Compulsory question 3 asks, how did your production skills develop throughout this project?  To which I say, while developing my magazine, my skills especially in digital design have improved tremendously. This is obvious when comparing my submissions for the preliminary task compared to the submissions for my final magazine. I have improved my ability to use software such as PhotoShop to edit my photos, and Canva to compose my designs into a working item.  The preliminary task allowed me to dip my feet into the world of magazine creation. I had to gather pictures relevant to the topic, edit them, and then make sure t

Compulsory Question 1

  Welcome back to my blog! Today I will be answering Compulsory Question 1. Prezi Presentation Link:  https://prezi.com/p/rk-9blvh5bca/?present=1 Prezi Video Link:  https://prezi.com/v/gltauyjihsvn/ Transcript     Hello everyone, my name is David Martinez, my candidate number is 1421, my center number is US154, and today I will be answering compulsory question 1 for my AICE Media Studies Class.  Compulsory question 1 asks, how does your product use or challenge social conventions and how does it represent social groups or issues? My answer to that is, my magazine is in line with the guidelines of a standard magazine, which include a masthead, tag line, cover image, barcode, cover lines, an issue number, and a date. To gain an idea of how these principles are applied by real magazine publishers, I used PCGamer and GAME as an inspiration. So, let's look at my cover page conventions. When looking at the cover of my magazine, the first thing you notice is the masthead, which is written
