Final Submission























When I had my 3rd quarter submission reviewed by my peers, I got very positive feedback, but the more I looked at it, I felt that I could do more. I wanted it to look as professional as possible. So, I did more research. I started by looking up more magazine covers such as People, Seventeen, and Time. I then looked up layout inspiration for the table of contents and article pages. After more editing, this is my final outcome.

For the cover, I practically redid the entire page. I started with the title. I felt like the title was to plain and disappeared when looking at the page. I began by experimenting with the fonts I had created when I was first starting the project. I decided to use this one because it is bold and stands out, especially with the black outline. One thing I really like about the new design is that I edited the model so that she appears over the title. This is a very common edit that I noticed throughout all my research. Popular magazines do this because they now people will recognize the magazine even if some of the title is covered. I also changed the fonts of the subheadings. I made the main subheading, "Emotion in Photography" much larger than the others to let the readers know that the is the main featured article. For the smaller subheadings, I used more stylish fonts to make the page look more enticing. I noticed with many of the researched magazines, they use many different fonts for the cover. Doing this helps separate everything on the page, while also making it more interesting for the reader.

The table of contents stayed somewhat similar. The main difference is the font change. I changed the font of the title "Contents". I felt that this font looked more professional. For each featured article on the page, I used a much bolder font. I didn't like the font I used on the third quarter submission. When researching layouts, I noticed that many popular magazines put the numbers in the largest font.

For the article pages, I made some minor changes. Firstly, I changed the article text fonts to Garamond. Based on my research, I found that this is the most commonly used font for magazines. I changed the font of the subheadings to a more stylish font as well. For the pull quote, I used two fonts instead of one. For the main words I used a cursive font. The other words are in a plain font. This puts importance on the main words, while also making it a more unique design.

CCR Question #4 Draft

4.) How did you incorporate technology in the project?

The main program I used for this project was Photoshop. I used it to create the flat plan, cover, table of contents, two-page article, and a sample website. I worked with text, shape tools, layers, editing images, and much more. 

When creating my marketing plan, I created real social media accounts on Instagram, Facebook, and Twitter. This was so I could show what my social media accounts would look like. I later deleted these accounts. 

I used my personal camera, a Canon T3i Rebel, to take all my images. Using my own camera made the process a lot easier because I am familiar with the camera settings. 

To showcase all my work and development, I created a website using Blogger.

CCR Question #3 Draft

3.) How did your productions skills develop through this project? 

Before starting this project, I had a small amount of knowledge on what goes into creating a magazine. I had never really thought about the process. Though, after getting this far, I am considering magazine development as a possible future career because of the amount of knowledge I had and have gained that I didn't realize went into magazine development. 

A major component of magazine design is using programs like Photoshop and InDesign. I experimented in InDesign because I had never used it before. I learned many skills, such as how to insert images and formatting text. I decided to use Photoshop to create my magazine because I have been using the program for around 4 years, as well as become certified in the program. Even with all the knowledge going into the project, I still came out with even more skills in the program. A major part of creating my magazine was working with fonts. I did a lot of experimentation with font style and design. I learned many different ways to use fonts, not only in the program, but how to use them in magazine design. Your choice of font can change the whole page. I used Photoshop to create all aspects of my magazine, from the flat plan to the article pages. Another program I used was Blogger. This was used to present everything I have done for this project. I had never used this program before. I can say now that I have become very proficient in the program. 

Before I started designing my magazine, I had to do extensive research on other magazines to get inspiration to see how I can make mine look as professional as others. I was taking notes on the layout of the pages, the styles and fonts used, the history/accomplishments of the magazine, and more. I also learned about the marketing and distribution of magazines. This is another part of the process that I had never thought about. When creating my distribution plan, I had to think about so many little details, such as what aisle will my magazine be in or what kind of stores I want it sold at. 


I chose to do a photography magazine because I have a lot of knowledge is this field, as well. I have been doing photography for around 4 years. Since we had to use our own photographs in the magazine, I figured this would be the best way to show my skills and be able to connect it with the text. Also, I already had knowledge on using the camera settings, so that really helping during the photo shoots. Contacting and working with models, scheduling photo shoots, and scouting out locations are all thing I have done before too. This really helped with the time management aspect of the project. 


I have definitely learned many new skills in all the programs I have used, as well as skills in magazine development. Overall, I am very satisfied with what I have created.

CCR Question #2 Draft

2.) How does your product engage with audiences and how would it be distributed as a real media text?


Audience engagement is a very important aspect of creating an effective and engaging magazine. To get real life examples, I researched three different magazines and how they engage their audience. I researched Amateur Photographer, The Photographer, and Outdoor Photographer. Obviously, all the magazines are directed towards people interested in photography, like mine. Digitally engaging their audience in very important in today's day and age. So, all of them offer their magazines online, along with additional articles in their websites. They also all have social media pages. Social media has such a big impact on people, so they offer an insight into their magazine to everyone, anywhere.

I have taken many of these strategies and applied them to my marketing and distribution plan. For my magazine, I plan to have a digital and print version available to the subscribers. A new issue will come out every month. Subscribers will have to pay a monthly or yearly fee. The digital version will be available through the Photographer Monthly app or other e-reader apps. I also plan to partner up with other art or design related magazines. When someone gets a print magazine mailed to their house, they will get a free sample of my magazine as well. They will have the opportunity to sign up for my magazine on the subscription card included. I will also have a website, like many of the other magazines researched, to market my magazine and feature additional photography related articles. I will have an email list that anyone can sign up for. They will receive weekly advertisements for the magazine. I will offer holiday specials and insights to upcoming and new articles. To advertise my magazine, I will reach out to online photography related companies and pay to have them sponsor/advertise my magazine. I will also make social media accounts on Facebook, Instagram, and Twitter. This will also feature additional articles that may not be in the magazine. This is to get people interested in the magazine and make it more likely for them to subscribe to my magazine.

For my distribution plan, I will have a new issue of my magazine every month. The new issue will be distributed in stores each month. I will have it in the big box stores, as well as arts related stores. In the art stores, I will have it placed in the checkout lines. In the big box stores, I will have it placed in the magazine isle. I will offer my magazine digitally and in print form. I was inspired by the Amateur Photographer magazine because they offer their magazine in print and online through their own app.

CCR Question #1 Draft

1.) How does your product use or challenge conventions and how does it represent social groups or issues?


When creating my magazine, I wanted the reader to feel a sense of ease when reading. To do this, I made sure the design was simple, but still unique to shows off my design skills. The magazine should inspire the readers to go out an experiment with photography to further their knowledge.

To start, to create my cover I used an image that expresses a very uplifting emotion. By doing this the reader will feel a similar emotion when going into the magazine. The image has a plain background allowing the model to be the main focus of the cover. In Photoshop, I added a brightness filter to the model helping her stand out even more. I used the yellow from the model’s t-shirt as the color theme for this issue of the magazine. This helps her outfit pop as well. Yellow exhibits an energetic emotion to the viewers adding to the bright emotion of the magazine.

To create the layout of the cover, I was inspired by Amateur Photographer and Digital Photo Pro. Their layouts are very similar in that they have a color theme, multiple different fonts, and a similar layout of subheadings. For the main subheading, I used a bolder font with a darker color to make that one stand out over the others. I made the smaller subheadings black, with a less unique font so they are still noticeable, but do not become the main focus. I laid out the subheadings so that they wrap around the model, but do not cover her up. For the title, I decided to keep it simple with a professional style.

For the table of contents, I used the same color theme as the cover. By keeping a cohesive theme throughout the magazine, it makes it look more professional. If there were more issues of my magazine, I would do the same thing, by having a specific color theme for each issue. For the title, “Contents”, I kept the same style and font as the title of the magazine on the cover. I created four article categories, and each has 2-4 featured articles on the table of contents page. I used three different fonts for each featured article summary, which includes the page number, article title, and summary. Doing this makes it easier for the readers to read the description and differentiate between each part. I also used the same front for the numbers on the images as the page numbers with the article descriptions.

For the layout, I wanted to keep it simple, so I kept all the text to one side and the images to the other. This makes it easier for the reader to look at the page without getting overwhelmed.  Originally, I had six images on the page, but it looked to crowded, so I reduced it down to three. Each image has bright lighting and exhibit positive feelings that are then added to the positive emotion of the whole magazine.

For the article pages, I used a cohesive theme as well, but not with yellow. I chose to use a different color because this the main featured article. I used blue because many of the images on the two pages contain blue. Blue also expression calm emotions. In all the images I used, the model has a specific emotion to connect with the article’s topic of emotion on photography and to show off my photography skills. I added dots to the pages, so they didn’t look so white and bare. By doing this, it adds a unique, artsy style to the pages.

For the article title, I used a more unique, stylish font then the other fonts used throughout the magazine. In Photoshop, I added a drop shadow to help to pop off the page. The font of the article text is very simple and easy to read. Using a simple easy to read font helps the reader read with ease. For the subheads, I made the font larger and bolder making it stand out. I made one of the quotes from the photographer I interview into a pull quote. This puts importance on the quote. I used a very dark, bold font to make it stand out.

Throughout the entire magazine, I made sure I used a lot of images to show off the photography skills, as well as my editing skills. For all the images, I did basic edits to clean them up, along with some more advanced edits. For example, the cover image, I made the model brighter than the background. For the last image on the second article page, I edited the colors to add a blue hue and adjusted the contrast. Since the entire magazine was made in Photoshop, it also shows my Photoshop and design skills. I used many photography magazines to help inspire me while making my magazine.

This magazine is geared towards people who are interested in learning about photography or improving their skills. I think there are some more professional aspects the magazine that require some basic knowledge when reader, but I think anyone would have a fairly easy time understanding the content. Photography can be expensive to do, so I think people who want to pursue what they are reading about will have to have money they can spend on photography gear. There isn't a specific gender or education level that the magazine is geared towards, it is just for anyone who is interested in photography.

Magazine Project - 3rd Quarter Submission

































Based on all the feedback and revisions, these are my final magazine pages. I made some minor changes to my cover. I kept the same title and subheadings style, but I rearranged some of the subheadings. Originally, I had a subheading over the model in the cover image, but it was taking away from the image. So, I moved it left of her. For the table of contents, I made many changes. I started by only having three images on the page instead of six. It looked to crowed with six images. I also replaced two of the images. All the words and fonts stayed the same. On the article pages, I made many changes. To start, I changed two of the images and added an additional one on the second page. I also added a pull quote on the second page. Overall, I am very satisfied with the outcome of my magazine.

Revisions - Pages

Original Pages:



Revised Pages:






























I made many changes to the article pages. For the first page, I changed the bottom image. Since many of the images were very similar, I chose a different image from the photo shoot that is a little different than the others. I also got rid of the quote text box. It was taking up too much space on the page. On the second page, I changed the top image as well. I felt that it was too similar to ones already being used. I also added another image to page two. Above the new this image, I added a pull quote. This is an important quote in the text that is added elsewhere to add importance, or emphasis, to the quote. For the font, I chose Arial Regular. I think it's a little more relaxed compared to Times New Romans font used for the article body text.

Distribution Plan

I will have a new issue of my magazine every month. The new issue will be distributed in stores each month. I will have it in the big box stores, as well as arts related stores. In the art stores, I will have it placed in the checkout lines. In the big box stores, I will have it placed in the magazine isle.

The magazine will be available in print and digital. The digital version can be accessed through the Photographer Monthly app or through e-reader apps, such as Amazon kindle and nook.

I also plan to pair with other magazine companies. When a subscriber receives a copy of their magazine in the mail, they will also receive a free copy of mine every few months. This is in hopes to get more people to subscribe to my magazine.

Revisions - Table of Contents

Original Table of Contents:



















Revised Table of Contents:



















I made many changes to my table of contents. To start, I took out and replaced some images. I think having six images looked to crowded, so I took out three. I replaced the page 11 and 43 images. Before the image for page 43 didn't relate to the two-page article. So, I replaced it with an image from the photo shoot that is used in the article as well. I also added two yellow stripes at the top of the page. It originally looked to empty at the top. I used colors from the cover to keep the same theme for this issue.

Traditional Distribution

I am going to go over different techniques that are used to distribute magazines. With all the advantages in technology, many magazines are now available digitally. Some do it through an app or through their website. There is also the traditional way, to have the magazine mailed to the subscriber. Often times, a free magazine is included with partnered magazine business. So, when someone orders a magazine, they get a free issue of another magazine as well. Another way is to have the magazine company attend events. There they can have free samples and opportunities for people to sign up for the magazine there. In stores, magazines are placed in the magazine isle, as well as the checkout lines. Putting them in checkout lines increases the chances of people to buy an issue because they are waiting in line reading all the headlines. Magazines are offered in all types of businesses, such as bookstores, restaurants, airports, supermarkets, grocery stores, and more. 

For my magazine, I will have an online version that is available through the app, as well as a physical copy that is mailed to the subscribers. I also want to partner with similar magazines, so when their subscribers receive one of their magazines, they will get a free sample of mine every few months. As for the stores, my magazine will be available in all the big box stores, such as Target, Walmart, CVS, and Walgreen's. I will also have my magazine available in photography stores and crafts stores, such as Michael's. My magazine will be in the checkout lines as well as the magazine isle so that everyone will see it.

Revisions - Cover

Original Cover:
Revised Cover:
Based on the feedback I received, I moved the two (black font) subheadings around. On the original cover, the subheadings were covering up the model, so I moved one to the left so the viewer can still focus on the cover image as well. I decided to leave the title the same. I experimented with changing the color, but white looked the best.

Marketing Plan

For my magazine, I plan to have a print and digital magazine that comes out every month. Subscribers will have to pay a monthly/yearly fee to get the magazine. I will also offer an online version of the magazine that readers can access through the Photographer Monthly app. I also plan to partner up with other art or design related magazines. When someone gets a magazine mailed to their house, they will get a free sample of my magazine as well. They will have the opportunity to sign up for my magazine on the subscription card included. I will also have a website, like many of the other magazines researched, to market my magazine and feature additional photography related articles. I will have an email list that anyone can sign up for. They will receive weekly advertisements for the magazine. I will offer holiday specials and insights to upcoming and new articles. To advertise my magazine, I will reach out to online photography related companies and pay to have them sponsor/advertise my magazine. I will also make social media accounts on Facebook, Instagram, and Twitter. This will also feature additional articles that may not be in the magazine. This is to get people interested in the magazine and make it more likely for them to subscribe to my magazine. On social media, it will be easier to spread the word about my magazine. 

In Photoshop, I created a sample of what I want my website to look like. Some features I included are an ad for my magazine, a members only article, and sample links to my social media pages.











These are screenshot from the Instagram, Twitter, and Facebook pages for my magazine. This page will feature small articles that are available to anyone.

Audience Engagement Research 3


Amateur Photographer:
The target audience for this magazine is people that have a love for photography with any level of photography knowledge, hence the name armature photographer. It is written so anyone can follow along and understand the content. The magazine is available in a print and digital version, with monthly payments. The digital version is accessible through their app or other reader apps. One thing that that makes this magazine different from others is that they have a new volume every week. So, they have 51 issues a year, instead of 12. They also have a free newsletter. Anyone can sign up for this to get an insight into what the magazine offers. By doing this, the company hopes people will subscribe to the weekly magazine. 
When I was looking thorough their site, I noticed that they didn't have any outside business advertisements. The only one that showed up was for their magazine. I am not sure what type of advertisements they include in their magazines. 
Something I would take away from this is having a new volume every week. Although this would cost a lot more money and require me to get more content, I think that would benefit the readers the most. They would be able to have new articles every week keeping them up to date with the latest news and techniques. I would also create a website for the magazine to advertise and show what the magazine offers. 
The magazine also has a Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, and YouTube page that anyone can access.

Audience Engagement Research 2


The Photographer:
The target audience for this magazine is professional photographers. Their main readers are photographers that are part of the Professional Photographers of America (PPA). Because the magazine is written for people with advanced knowledge, people with basic knowledge may not be able to follow along easily.


This magazine is completely online. It is created in the format of a print magazine but presented on a digital platform. Readers are able to flip through the magazine as if it is printed. People can also print or download it, allowing them to access it at any time. There are always articles available through the site, but there is only one magazine volume released once a month. The magazine is also free to everyone.
When I was scrolling through their site, I noticed that all their advertisements were photography based as well. Some of the ads were for camera gear, printing services, and more. All of the ads appeal to the readers, meaning they are more likely to click on them.

This magazine also sponsors photography events. Because this magazine is based out of Texas, it advertises for events all over the state. 
One thing I would take away from this magazine is the ads targeted towards the audience. If the magazine is full of ads that the reader is not interested in they will just breeze over them. If they are geared towards the audience, it not only helps the reader, but the company that is being advertised and my magazine. I would also create a website to help advertise my magazine. 
To market this magazine, they have Facebook page.

Audience Engagement Research 1



Outdoor Photographer:
This magazine's target audience is photographers. According to Mike Gural, the manager of this magazine, "Amateur photographers are simply those people out striving to perfect their passion for picture-taking. The subscribers tend not to be professionals. These are affluent, educated people on vacation who are out hunting for the perfect shot" (https://www.targetmarketingmag.com/article/market-focus-amateur-photographers-958-words-28673/all/). The magazine is targeted to people who enjoy photography with all levels of knowledge. Because of this, the magazine is written so that all people can understand and follow the information.
To market the magazine, they have a free weekly newsletter that anyone can subscribe to. This include exclusive information and promotions to get people interested in purchasing the monthly magazine. They also have an online blog that anyone can read as well. When I was looking through their website, all the ads on the site were photography related. The company filters their ads so that they appeal to the readers, similarly to what I did in my magazine. When I was scrolling through the site these are a few of the ads that came up. One was an ad for their app. This is one way they appeal to their audience. They are making it easier for their readers to always have access to their magazine. Two other ads were an editing program ad and a camera ad.


Along with an app, Outdoor Magazine also have social media accounts, including Instagram, Twitter, and Facebook.











An aspect of this I would use to market my magazine is all the free access to viewers. People are able to get a sneak peek into the magazine thorough the social media accounts, newsletter, and blog. Doing this gets people interested in the magazine, making them more likely to purchase the magazine. I also like the idea of having a website that advertises for the magazine and has some insights to the magazine. 

Class Activity - InDesign

In class, we learned how to create a magazine in Adobe InDeisgn. For my midterm submission, I used Adobe Photoshop to create my magazine. So many of the features in Photoshop are similar in InDesign, which made it very easy to learn. These are not completed pages, they were just from learning the basic functions of InDesgin.

Monday, January 20, 2020

My Target Audience

My magazine is geared towards people who are interested in learning photography or getting tips on how to improve their photography skills. I think there is a more professional aspect to the magazine, so the readers have to have some knowledge of photography when reading. Photography is expensive to do, so I think people who read it will have to have money they can spend on photography gear. There isn't a specific gender or education level that the magazine is geared towards, it is just for anyone who is interested in photography. I think the articles are the most appealing aspect to the readers. The articles were all created to relate to some aspect of photography. I also think the advertisements in the magazine are helpful for the readers because they all relate to photography in some way.

Feedback and Revisions

Cover:
When presenting my magazine to a group, it was suggested to me that I rearrange the subheadings. On the final draft, they were covering up the model, distracting the viewers from the cover image. On my own, I decided that I want to experiment with the title. I've been testing different colors, fonts, and styles. I am not sure if I want to replace it yet, but I think experimenting to see what could come out of it won't hurt. 


Table of Contents:
When reviewing my magazine, I decided to take out three images from the table of contents and replace two of them. The original set up looked crowded with six images. I think with three it allows the viewer to focus on the words, creating a minimalist style. For the Sarasota Photographer image, I changed it to an image of an actual photographer from Sarasota. The image I used to replace the This Month's Technique image is from the same photo shoot that use for the article pages. This gives the reader a sneak peek into what the other images look like for that article. It was also suggested to me that I experiment with ways to make the page numbers images easier to read that are on the images. Some of them became hard to read on the original draft. One thing I forgot to add was a footer for this page that has the magazine name and volume date.

Article Pages:
For this page, it was suggested to me that I chose some more diverse images for the two article pages. For the final draft, all the images were very similar with the blue background. So, I have changed the images to other ones from the same photo shoot. Also, I have to finish writing the article for the first page.

Use of Conventions

How does your product use or challenge conventions and how does it represent social groups or issues?

For my magazine, I used a variety of formatting and styles. I used many different magazines as inspiration to help me set up my magazine. For the cover, I used rule of thirds with the cover images to make it more appealing to the viewer. I positioned the left subheading so that it fills in the negative space. I chose to use different shades of yellow because it matched a color on the model's shirt. Many magazines covers that I looked at chose one color or different shades of a color for the cover. I also used many different fonts to help the reader differentiate between lines. For the table of contents, I put all the words on the left and the images on the right. I also used many different fonts to help separate sections of the text. For the two article pages, I used images all from one photo shoot so that they would match with the color theme. For the title of the article, I used a bold font with a shadow to help it pop off that page. Since the magazine is geared towards photographers, and photography equipment can be very expensive, I would say this magazine is for people who have more money.

Midterm Submission
























I developed all these pages using Adobe Photoshop. I used Photoshop because I have been using this program for over 4 years and became certified last year. I am now able to navigate the program quite easily. After looking at different types of magazines, I came up with some ideas of my own on how to layout my pages. 

I spoke with 2 professional photographers about how they portray emotion. In my article, I discussed their techniques on showing and changing emotion through photography.

I chose all of these photographs because they have clear, solid backgrounds. This draws the audience to focus on the model. I am currently studying emotions in photography in another AICE class and have found it to be a very interesting topic. I have also discovered that I enjoy applying what I have learned by creating my very own magazine.

Cover Template

Cover Template:
For my cover, I plan to include a few subheadings with some of the featured articles that will be discussed in the magazine, along with their page numbers. For the cover image, I want to use a portrait image of a person. I have decided to call my magazine Photographer Monthly. I thought that would be a good name because for some of my articles, they are "This Months..." or "In This Month".

For the cover, I have experimented with two different types of text. For the left, I used Candara Regular and Light. For the right, I used Edwardian Script for the subheading title and Candara Light for the page numbers. I used both fonts on the table of contents as well. I want to only use a select number of fonts so that everything connects. I am not sure which cover I want to use yet. 
 
While creating my cover, I was also experimenting with title fonts. The first row, the font used is very elegant, but also free flowing. The second font is bold and strong. For the third font, it's very delicate, but professional. For the bottom font, it modern and simple. I decided to use the third font because of its simplicity and professionalism.  


After a lot of editing and redesigning, I finally came up with a new design to use. I used the same title, but I changed the fonts for the subheadings. I made the main article subheading different so that it stands out from the others, while the others are small and black. The color theme I chose was yellow to match with the color in the model's shirt.
