Week 2- Production Schedule

In Tuesdays Afternoon session, I started to generate ideas to use for my final idea. I did this by creating a moodboard which helped me to look at the different things which people are interested in when they read magazines.  Some of the topics below which people like are vechiles, sports and movies. I also, did a mind map to show the different areas I have explored. At the end of the lesson I completed my contigency plan, so that I know how to solve any problems by refering back to my contigency plan. Here is the moodboard & mind map.






                                                      

On Wednesday's morning session with Andy, I started to complete all the research. The first piece of research which I was doing was the constraints. In this piece of work, I had to include all the things which affected the final product. Some of these constraints are the legal and ethical. Legal and Ethical are the copyright and racism & discrimination issues. Other constraints could be the time and the limitations of your target audience.

In Harry's Afternoon session I looked at some magazines to show me an example of what my magazine layout should be. I looked at the magazine source and scanned some pages in which I thought will help to get a retro look to my magazine. Here are some of the images;




On Fridays, In Andy's morning session I continued to do my research and I managed to finish everything in this session and started to create my pitch. In Simon's afternoon session we looked at the different types of layouts of magazines. As an exercise we had to find one particular page from a range of magazines  which we found interesting in the design layout of the page. I choose a page which was interesting because it's lay out was in the form of a website. After we did this, Simon introduced to us  Adobe Illustrator techniques to use for our text. I found this quite useful because I'll use this when it comes to designing my magazine. We had to do a 750 word essay on this for the rest of the lesson.
