AICE Media Studies

We learned how to use InDesign on the computers and i personally think I'm going to use this alot. Its the first time I'm doing this so its kinda bad but the more i work with it the easier it will be on me to make a product that looks like a magazine. Seeing this rough draft look semi good made me feel really good and know that my finished magazine will come out great. The spacing difference between the pages is odd, and the text was to close to the title but all this can be fix with a matter of time. The text was complete nonsense because i was in a hurry to find any type of text to continue learning to use this tool but with the article that I'm going to rewrite for my magazine will be different, most definitely more magazine like. With this ill be able to fix the mistakes that i mentioned before for a clear look and have something to show Cambridge that i know is good. The more i learned about the program the more comfortable i got with it.

Little things that were noted to be changed, like the boxes around the group of texts. I would need to widen images and instead of white filling in the text boxes in the cover, it'll be clear to have a more magazine feel. The text was to basic for a magazine and needs to be changed to something more dramatic and bold. i also noticed now that my two-page spread doesn't look much like a magazine so slight changes should easily fix that up. Along with all this, the photos also need variation because some have qualities that are the same.

The pages were made to focus on the text with the boxes around them and the photos for reference. Since the article was most important i needed someway to draw attention to them so thats what the outlines were used for. I personally choose these photos with the help of a second and third opinion because they were the best of the wide selection of photos i took. I felt that they were the most appropriate to my soft, light theme. The layout was to regain the audiences attention with the pictures and text switches sides, our attention doesnt last long so i made it to be a recognizable change. My article topic was the main focus of my magazine which is fashion.

I schedule my interviews the day of the first shoot. I thought this would be best because the first shoot, my model is nicely dressed and prepared however i do want to split up the amount of questions i have for her by day. I'm thinking ill question at separate times to get to see if these is a change in a way shes answers or talks of a subject. QUESTIONS: -do you have complications with your style? -if you were to classify your style, what would it be? -celebrity closest to the way you dress? - where do you get your inspiration from? -do you think your style will change? if so, when? The 1,2 and 5 are just interview question but the audience could use 3 and 4 to compare styles or us my model as their inspiration, so they can find similarity and differences.

Other article i involved are other options i had to make the cover and main article of this magazine but choose on this issue. For example, men's fashion and hair coloring, everything involves fashion one way or another. I choose those best to engage the audience because i have to target audience and as part of the targeted i know what draws my attention. Usually i see ads together like if there selling the same type of product they'll put them in the same category of things for example, sample of different type of perfumes.   

These were the locations of the first shoot, i choose them because it was convenient for the both of us. These were the best because they show the whole background but still is vague to the photo shoot pictures.

i scheduled my female models photo shoot yesterday and we go some really amazing shots, i scheduled according to my models schedule because i know some of them have busy lives. However, for my female model she was ready at anytime and i chose a period of time that was close to the other shoots. My first male model will do his shoot to tomorrow while my second male model is to be determined.
