 Project -3b Magazine Cover

S.I. Magazine October 2024 Edition

          I chose a sports magazine covering my favorite professional football team for this week's project.

          The first thing I learned is that our design software’s generative A.I. tools steer clear of any registered trademarks and copyrights. The image you see is as close to the real thing as I could get without copying an image from the Internet. I had to do some touch up on the football and his trousers but was mostly pleased with the rest of the image.

I gathered the featured article and the two supporting cover lines by searching for Tampa Bay’s team news. I intentionally did not use the team’s or player’s names for the same reasons as above. I tried to match the magazine’s typeface and fonts as close as possible. Overall, this project was fun and I enjoyed doing it.

Disclaimer: this is an educational project for a college graphic design course, it is not an actual cover of the named magazine. This blog post is protected under a principle called nominative fair use.
