First of all I havd to check the dimentions of the page so that it was the correct size compared to the magazine I analysed. I then added the size I wanted my columns to be in mm and added where I wanted them possitioned on my page. After entering all that it came up with my page with my columns on it so I then added margins so tha everything is in the correct place and everything is in line. I had to edit my picture on Photoshop so that it was completely white when I added it to my DPS. I dragged it over from Photoshop to InDesign and then made it the correct size. I added the headline "Need to make sure I go on a secure website next time!" by creating a text box and entering my text into it. I then possitioned it where I wanted it to be and changed the font, size and colour to how I wanted it. I did the same with the text underneath and the text that says "exclusive interview of the week". After that I added the line across the top of the page by creating a box and then colouring it red. I then creataed another box that I coloured Black and put at the top of my columns. I then added a text box over the top where I wrote that section of text and changed the colour to white so it stood out on top of the black. I then inserted my article and interview into my columns and clicked the plus sign in the bottom right hand corner, by doing that when I clicked the next column the text carried on into that one. I then created a box and coloured it grey to put my facts in. I created another box and just left it white so that I could later put my images and text in. I then copied and pasted that 4 more times so that they were all exactly the same size and I then rotated them by clicking the rotation box just above the box to turn them onto different angles. I created a text box to add my text to the grey box and then highlighted the seperate sections to get them different colours. I then opened my image in Photoshop and dragged it into this document and resized it and rotated it so that it fit in the white box. I had to alter the graphics box also so that the image was shown. I added a text box to put my text into.
