A further process that I had included in my magazine template was the tagline at the top of the cover; this is a vital convention as I am following a pre existing house style, and this tagline is present in all issues of the magazine. I began by creating a rectangular shape and moving it to ensure it fit correctly above the masthead and adhered to the bleed line boundary; I then selected the right shade of pink to ensure that it followed the house style, and inserted the text. I made the decision to not search for a specialist font on dafont.com, and instead use a pre-existing one already on the system.
Following that, I added the small conventional details that most magazines include on the front cover; I placed a barcode that I had downloaded into the bottom right hand corner of the magazine, as this was one of the only spaces available but I also didn't want to attract attention to it as it is fairly insignificant in comparison to the head cover line. Alongside the barcode I located the price of the magazine, as this is present in informing the audience about the cost of the product.
