Plan for this week

As the deadline is approaching next month, i need to try and retake my photos this week and take extra ones that are needed for the contents page! I need to retake the photo for the diet article, as the model i used was only 14 and this wasn't suitable for the target audience of my magazine. I need to find another model which is older so that the target audience can relate to this model more. I also need to take pictures of the 'editor' for the cotents page. Hopefully this will all be achieved by the end of the week!

Changes in the coursework

I have made a few changes to my coursework to improve it. This includes completely re changing and rearranging a page that didn't follow conventions of a magazine page. I included information on diet pills which links in with my research that i did before for my coursework. I still have work to do, such as taking pictures of models as one of the models i used was a slightly younger aged girl! This needs to be changed so that the model looks more realistic and believable for the magazine target audience.

I also need to add more quotes and headings into my front cover as it is looking quite spacious and this isn't normal for a fashion magazine.
This is my plan for the next few days!

Second draft of coursework

This week we handed in our second draft of work. This was the first time  i had received any feedback from people in my class about my coursework. Overall they said that my magazine was convention but had a few changes to make to reinforce the conventions of a fashion magazine. For the front page, i had a few white spaces that needed to be filled with text, and to add more images! This was also applicable to the contents page too. I have to re-shoot the image of my model for the front page as some of her hair got cut out in the editing.

Another improvement that i had suggested was for my article on weight loss. I had an idea to put a tape measure as the banner instead of just a block colour. This will make it look more relatable to the article and add in the theme of it.
