Kim Roberts Magazine Project

I chose to make Phillies Weekly because you told us to choose something we're interested in and it will come out better. I really love sports, and I can't get enough of the Phillies right now. I took this picture about 2 months ago at Phillies Photo Day and it's the first thing I thought of when the magazine cover was assigned. So I had an idea and a photo to go with it at the beginning. I like that he's pointing out to grab readers' attention. I did the yellow "blast" thing because it really stands out to get attention and it makes the backgound of the photo a lot less intrusive. It really makes it less loud. And I put the main story at the bottom of the magazine because Chase Utley points down to "NL WILD CARD" which is what is most important to this team right now. I moved "Weekly" behind his head because it gave me more space for teases, and the fact that the magazine is a weekly is not that important. It can still be read, but the important thing in the title is that the magazine is about the Phillies. I chose the font colors to go with Phillies team colors. The red font and stroke is from a spot on his jersey, and the blue font and stroke is from a spot on the Phillies stars in the title.
