AICE Media Studies

After doing my cover page interview, I went to another classmates to ask questions about my contents page sample. Here are their responses. Video: link

After coming up with a few interview questions, I decided to create three separate ones to get a better understanding of what my classmates thought of the sample magazine. The first interview was on my cover page sample and here is what one of my classmates had to say about it. Video: link

After creating my sample magazine, I have decided to conduct interviews on my classmates to see how they feel about it. Here are some questions I will be asking them. What do you think of the cover page? What do you think of the contents page? What do you think of the double-page spread? How is the color scheme? Is there something I could improve on? Did you like that I used both a male and female model? Should I continue? Is there anything I should add to this?

I have been thinking a lot about names for my magazine since the beginning of this project. I have taken long to figure it out because I want one that would really mean something. For all my samples,I have used Fashion Buzz,  which my group came up with on the spot for the sample magazine. Other ideas have been Phasion , Glam, Best You.

After creating my double page spread, I think it was good for a first try. I will definitely need to work on making the layout look better and more organized. I only used one picture but I many use more than one in the future. My color scheme is subject to change as well because some of the text is unclear. I liked how it looked overall, however, because it was something different. For my final magazine, I will definitely add more text as well. Since this was just a trial run, I was focusing more on the layout of it all.

After creating my cover and content page and gathering a few ideas, I decided to create my own double-page spread. I did not make it as elaborate as the real one would be since this is just a sample. I wanted to play around with my options before getting too into it.

Thanks to my survey, I was able to gather ideas on what should be inside my magazine double-page spread. Many of the students voted for it containing beauty tips, latest trends, and interviews. I was able to include two of these things for this sample contents page.
