Feedback

Over the past few days I've been struggling a lot to come up with an idea for my double-page spread. I have looked at other magazines and tried to research but have not been conclusive with my decision for the double page spread. On Thursday in class there was a feedback session, where 4 other students and I sat down and gave each other suggestions and idea for our project. I brought up my struggle with my double-page spread, and the group I was working with began giving me ideas like a trending clothing, or a special new item of clothing, like a sports tux or a certain type of cloth used. Although I liked the idea of doing something trending, I feel like in terms of high end fashion, the trend remains the same for the majority of the part, which is why I think I will be doing the release of a unique item, although I tend to change my mind a lot.

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.
