Spring break

    Spring break was a huge set back in the production of my magazine, in the sense that I failed to keep up with a lot of the things necessary for my magazine. Although I did get a few things done, I was not able to go accordingly with my shooting schedule. My cover magazine model left town for spring break and my other model was not able to plan accordingly. With this said, I have rescheduled shooting dates. The model for my cover page is coming back into town and I have already made plans to shoot with him either April 2nd or April 3rd, whichever of the two days are more available. And for my other model, as of now, our plan is to shoot between April 6th and 8th.

     Although it may seem like I am cutting it really close to the deadline by taking the pictures 1-2 weeks before the due date, I am going to work extremely hard on completing the entire content of the magazine before taking the pictures. This is so that by the time that I have taken the pictures, I just have to insert them into my magazine, which will already be completed.

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.

Pictures

Image
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.
