Research and Planning: Indesign Tutorial





This was a tutorial in using Indesign. 

First we had to find a film review online and then find an accompanying image. Using copy and paste, I saved the text within a Word Document and saved the image to the desktop.

Opening Indesign, I created a document, Having done this, I then went on to create columns and a heading so it resembled the format of an article.

Using the 'Place' tool-I took the text previously saved and positioned it into the columns. 

I used the same method for the image.

I also experimented with the background; using different colours and adjusting the gradient. 

Drop shadow on the image. Creating a border around the text.

I found this a lot easier than the first Photoshop tutorial but it is something I am going to have to develop my confidence in.
