Magazine Color/Pictures

As I was looking into other Latin American music magazines, while researching I found that Latin music magazines are usually very colorful, making it extremely eye catching and appealing to the eye. This benefits the magazine in more than one way; due to its colors it could attract someone who is more interested in another genre.  I took this into account and decided that I’m going to focus on finding a good group of colors that blend well together to catch the attention of the public.

     While researching I also saw that it said that for this particular genre, popular artists were normally on the cover page to draw attention. I wasn’t exactly happy to hear this, as I wanted to incorporate unique pictures, taken by me. I thought about what I could do and I decided that I wanted to be the model for all of the different pictures within my magazine, while incorporating hair and dressing style of the artists, almost like an impersonation. I felt like this would be something extremely unique, which is not often seen. Something different.

Feedback session #2

Today in class we had the final feedback discussion  before the due date of the project. I gained reassurance from it because I felt like I was extremely behind but it turns out I just need to catch up on shooting my pictures. I was having trouble thinking of a background to use for my cover image, and where I wanted to take it. My group brought up some examples of other magazines and presented them to me, and I decided that my background should be plain, but with a glossy touch. Colors like white, grey, and black are all good colors to use, depending on the color of what the model will be wearing. I also asked more about the double page spread and what I should talk about. I stated my idea that I mentioned in a blog post and the group liked it but they also gave me the idea of doing the article on a certain season. For example, “How to dress for the summer” which is not a bad idea, but I feel like it wouldn’t apply to my genre, but I am going to keep it in consideration.

Double page spread

     After really thinking about what I could possibly do my double page spread on, I decided that I am going to do "The latest in mens high-end fashion". What I intend to talk about, and the message I intend to carry out will be about how to keep up and stay within the current fashion trend, and on the specifics of the actual articles of clothing, like shoes, single/double breasted, gray/navy, etc. What I intend to due, is to let the audience know how they can be like everyone else within the fashion trend, but then also how they can add their unique style to their outfits.      When talking about high-end fashion, tailored clothing is the main focus under that category. I will focus on the suits, ties, shoes, and other accessories within this category for my double page spread. This is the most common form of high-end fashion as it is so practical for everyday life and necessary for not only special events, but also for work, or any sort of elegant even...
