Research Part 2

Today I was researching ideas on how I was going to incorporate the "text making a shape" in the two page spread while also having a paragraph form list. It turns out that it makes the article too messy and can make the audience confused on how to read it which can make them disinterested. So I have come to the conclusion that the "text making a shape"will be eliminated from the article, and I will just use the paragraph form list technique. I also have come to the conclusion that I will not add another two page spread of just pictures.The reason why I will not include another two page spread is because in all the fashion magazines, most of their two page spread consists of two pictures that take the whole page. I, however, have one model that will be wearing five different outfits. In other words, I have five different pictures which would be featured in the two page spread that includes descriptions. 


Planning the layout wasn't the only thing I was thinking about today. I was also thinking about the websites I am going to use to create my magazine. There are so many options to choose from. But, out of all of those, there are two options that could use. The two are Canva and Joomag. My partner and I haven't really agreed on which tool to use. I am going to have to research a little more on these two websites to come to the conclusion.

Table of Contents

Today I have been working on the table of contents. So far the structure of the table of contents look really cool. The reason why I like the structure is because it's different from all the table of contents I've seen in the magazines. The structure itself is just what I pictured in my brain. The only issue is that I don't know if the font sizes are readable for the audience to read. I also don't know if I should include all the pictures in the table of contents and instead just add like two pictures that match the two articles out of five articles mentioned in the table of contents. I just don't know if the size is proportional to the magazine because on the computer is different than the actual print size magazine. Even if I include the two pictures in the table of contents it will still look boring and dull. I feel like the table of contents is missing color or graphic design on the top right hand corner.  I don't know. If i talk to my partner when we get...

Filters

Image
For my cover photo, I want my photo to have a filter that makes the fashion pop out even more. I also want to add a retro feeling. Even though my fashion isn't retro, I still want to give the photo a pinch of character. Here are the photos of different filters: Original photo Dodger Warm color Twilight I used PicsArt to put filters on the cover photo. Picsart is an image editing, collage, and drawing application and a social network.  PicsArt enables users to take and edit pictures, draw with layers, and share their images with the PicsArt community and on other networks like  Facebook  and  Instagram . The app is available on  iOS ,  Android , and  Windows  mobile devices.  I like all three filters but I think I want to choose the Dodger filter because I like how it brightens the background and highlights the outfits of the model. Also, the dodger filter adds character to the photo. I am very glad that I didn't have to u...

Cover Page Dilemma

Image
I have finally started working on the cover page on Canva. I have been having difficulty in organizing the subtexts on the side of the cover page. Based on the fashion magazines on google, they were all on one font with different sizes with three different colors. I don't really know what to do because the background I chose for the cover page doesn't allow me to have a wide color scheme. The only color that is visible on display is White. Black and Turquoise can also be seen but only on certain parts on the background photo but it doesn't seem to blend very well. My cousin and I have been finding alternatives so that the color scheme will blend well, but so far we have no solution. I am starting to get really stressed. I feel like I'm running behind with this project since it's due in like three weeks and I have only been working on just the cover page and I still have to work on the table of contents and the two page spread. It turns out that the the inspirat...
