Final Product

There are plenty of emotions going through my mind right now as I finally submit my magazine. Working on it was not just fun, but I honestly learned so much and I appreciate media 10 times more than I did before. It is crazy to me that 7 weeks ago I was frantically researching magazines and basically memorizing layouts, and now, I am looking at my OWN magazine. Thank you for not only reading my blog but also thank you for staying with me through this journey.

Am I done?

Hello!! I am very excited to announce that I finally finished my magazine!!!! This last week was definitely the toughest mainly because the final touches are always the most tedious ones. My group and I struggled a lot trying to find fonts that would not only match our genre but also that it would work for all of our cover pictures, and I think that was the hardest part. We had similar backgrounds for our cover image, but what was different was the lighting, which made mine bright and so we couldn’t make it white as we wanted to. But as I mentioned in my previous posts, our teacher found a solution online.  The other bumps in the road that we encountered weren’t as bad, or so I thought. We originally had one page for the table of contents (not counting the ads) and I had this feeling in the back of my mind all along-- it just didn’t seem right to only have one page of contents. I ended up brushing off that feeling but it was still bothering me. I told my group and we ended up adding more content so that the magazine would total 60 pages, which is average for a beauty and fashion magazine. Fixing this issue was quite simple because Canva allows you to copy and paste an entire page, and by doing so, all we had to do was change the titles and pictures but it was all set up for us.
The biggest challenge I am facing now is finishing my CCR. I am a perfectionist and I keep adding things to my outline and script, then deleting, then adding. It will be done in time obviously, but I will have to work extra hard because I have so much going on and my stress level is as high as it has ever been, but I am very excited though.

Side note: The videos that show the behind the scenes of the photoshoot will be included in my CCR!
