YouTube Tutorial - inDesign
In order for us to create the two editions of our magazine, we will be using inDesign. Both of us have not used this software before so it is vital for us to learn how to use it before we start to create our pages. So, I have been watching this YouTube tutorial where it goes through all the basic steps in inDesign. These are the first four significant steps. The first screen shot shows me how to create a New Document and set up two pages. The second screen shot then tells us how to change the colour and format of the pages. The third screen shot shows us how to upload a image and followed by the fourth screen shot, it shows how to enlarge the image to fit the page.
Here, again I have put together another four screen shots showing some other important steps to create a magazine page. I have shown these specific steps because you can see the development in the creation of this page. These four show how to import text on the page as well as enlarge it and change the fonts/colours and where to drag and place it on the page. This tutorial was extremely helpful as I now know how to start designing our magazine pages, which allows me to experiment and learn more on the actual software its self.

How similar is this to Photoshop? How flexibility will it give you in construction?
