I'm nearly finished.

As you can see from the title of the blog post, I'm nearly finished. Just writing those three words makes me feel great.

Today, I borrowed a friend's camera and took a couple of pictures on our free period, and then again in form afterwards. There were three people I took pictures with first, and since there were good bits in both of them I decided to copy and paste different people from two of the photos I took and put them all together. I then used the two pictures I'd gotten from form to add to the ranks of the first group and then to act as the last band. So that's the other two bands that I've finished, the Elite Four and Felix Uriel.

Basically, all the editing I did for them was using the pen tool to cut them out and paste them onto the blank background, as well as the transform tool to make sure they were in proportion to one another (except one of them, which I deliberately made slightly taller than the others so that they could be seen in the back, and also so they seemed really tall and looked like a guy you wouldn't want to mess with). If I had more time, I would have gone through and edited the exposure levels so that they all looked like the photos had been taken from the same place - as it is, the ones taken outside are far brighter than those taken from inside the building - although the way I've arranged them makes it looks like the photo was taken with flash on, with the people from the brighter photos at the front and the darker ones at the back. So yeah.

Feature Spread = Done.
Contents Page = Done.
Front Cover = ummmmmmmmmm

I have two hours tomorrow to finish the front cover, and I've got all the photos I need. One of the photos had the guy at the front pointing towards the camera, in some sort of WW2 propaganda pose. This'll work well for my front cover, as it's about a battle of the bands - obviously readers will be able to see the picture from a distance, and guess that there's some sort of conflict or battle being talked about in the magazine.

Yep, I'm nearly done. Just a couple more hours to go and it'll be completely done.

Then I'll have to start my evaluation and presentation and stuff. Oh, joy.
