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.

Today I finally got to shoot my images. For my cover page I stuck to the glossy background with the model at the center of the page. As my article for my double page spread is about the fashion along the summer season, I decided to take my images for the double page spread outside in a sunny, summer-like environment: With the pictures finalized I can finally finish putting my magazine together, and continue with the completion of the content of my double page spread as well as my table of contents.
