FRONT COVER FOR INSPIRE MAGAZINE



At the top of our magazine I have put the masthead “Inspire”. We chose this name because the aim of the magazine was to ‘inspire’ different youths. The colours of the masthead follow the magazines colour scheme, which was mainly relating to burgundy, as this colour is quite well liked within the young people community. I think what went well was the sell lines on the front cover of the magazine as they directly related to what was within the magazine. I also think that the main image was very successful, although in the beginning when printing out the first copy the image came out quite pixelated I went back and uploaded the image again to see if that would better the quality and it did. 
I made this front cover through using the software PhotoShop, I chose to use this as I figured it would be easier to PhotoShop the background in attempt to make it white. All images taken for the front cover were done originally and then uploaded onto PhotoShop and then edited on their. I also chose to rotate the image and flip it upside down as it would create quite a quirky and different style which reflects what the magazine is about.  

Film Review - Bad Neighbours


Seriously. How bad are your neighbours?

Delicious Dave Franco and America’s heart throb Zac Efron co-star in the new and greatly fussed about comedy: Bad Neighbours. Kelly and Mat who are played by the famous Seth Rogen and Rose Byrne move into what they thought would be a wholesome and peaceful neighbourhood, determined to secure a great place to raise their new-born child however…
They were wrong. 
When frat boys Teddy, Pete and the whole fraternity move in across the street all hell breaks loose. Not at first of course. At first glance the couple were okay about the whole situation; they even offered them weed as a sign of peace. But when the parties started and the noise levels went up, so did the couples patience. Police officers were called, pranks were pulled, sexual remarks were made and tears were shed (Yes on both sides) and that was just about the perfect recipe for a highly rated comedy. 
The greatest achievement Bad Neighbours had to me personally was the ability to make a very easy and not that great storyline one of the most memorable and exceptionally hilarious movies I’ve ever seen and believe me, I don’t laugh that often. It definitely beat most “high school/ college” based movies like Project X and certain American Pie movies by a mile.


Even though it did have its normal “the good prevails over evil ending” It is definitely a one to watch, besides do I even have to mention how beautiful the two protagonists were? (Zac and Dave) If they were my neighbours Bad Neighbours would've been a sequel.
