Today's Plan Of Action

Thursday November 18th

i plan to deconstruct a magazine layout today, to find out what is typical of a magazine front cover (what are the conventions, and how do they differ across magazine genres such as Fashion, Trashy and Music).
I have brought into class today a variety of magazines, i will then give my own interpretation to what is typical across them all and what's different, what is important.
i plan to cut up the magazines i've brought to remove the important parts and maybe even construct out of the pieces - the most typical magazine.

i will then experiment with how i could make my magazine different, whether it be with the magazine front cover layout itself, or how the magazine is shaped/folded/opened.
ideas have already been discussed with my teacher about:
  • the magazine being fold out rather than an open book, that gives access to an interactive and more in depth version.
  • size of the magazine
  • content advertised on the cover
  • name of the magazine
  • collaboration with youtube
