Preliminary Task: How To Make A Montage


How I made my montage

First I set up the document for A4 international paper, then I downloaded a background from google and dragged the layer on top of the document.  Then I downloaded the pictures which described the vlogger genre, where I put various artists which represent fashion,music,gaming,comedy and more. I saved images of the youtubers and their logos , to represent that . The vlogger genre represents video blogging thus youtube is a big part of that , as vlogging all started with you and some of the more famous youtubers like shane dawson, tyler Oakley and pewdiepie are from there.

Preliminary Task:Magazine Logo Design And Influences






Today i will explain to you the logo of my magazine, and the influences i have taken for it. The influences of my magazine , Project : Vlog came from the magazines and their writers.

TenEighty : written by Paul Neafcy,lydia snapper and poppy dillion.
This is a magazine about youtubers and all the internet culture in itself. Seperate from mainstream media it highlights youtubers.The writers above i wrote about , wrote about fashion and different reviews in the magazine. I like this logo per say since it describes within the logo what it is about with its play button symbol, since it is universally for youtube; thus is all about youtubers.


OH My Vlog : written by Paul lang and Wesley Copeland

This is a British vlogging magazine, where it is solely dedicated to the vlogging phenomenon. Where all sorts of vloggers are stared in like Zoella. The writes above wrote about, they write in depth pages in the magazine. The reason this logo inspires me is, because of its laid back font which gives a feeling of vlogging. Since when you hear the word vlog all you think is, that its going to be homey laid back and one on one with the person in the vlog, since you get to see what that person is in his daily life.

 

Empire : Ali Plumb, Owen Williams and Kim Newman

This magazine is all about the updates on the movies and the movie culture. Where everything related to all genres of movies are given. The reason why i chose this logo is because of its color since it attracts the audience mostly, and this color will attract them quickly and they will have a look at my magazine. Also because of its bold font.

Empire

Total Film : Gem Seddon and George Wales

This magazine is also on the film culture and all about the movies. I chose this logo as a sort of inspiration because of this logos bright and bold font. I would like to have this type of font, since it would attract the audience.


Vortex : Kenny Smith , Paul Spragg , James Goss and Nicholas Briggs

This is a music magazine, and on all kinds of genre. It gives information about music on the different genres in the world. I chose this logo since it has a bold font with a bright yellow color to attract the audience.

Top Gear : Paul Horell, Jack Rix ,Ollie Marriage, James May ,Jeremy Clarkson and Richard Hammond

This magazine is all about the information on cars, and basically is based on the show Top Gear and what will happen it it and regarding the adventures on the show. I also chose this because of its bold font.





Below is my attempts at a logo made in Illustator

The first logo is made using the text tool using the best font(ever) :Baskervillie Old Face
the one below that is made using blob brush tool.
I used it because i wanted a creative homey feel, which would represent that this is a vlogging magazine.
