Table of Contents (Option 2)

This is my second table of contents. My inspiration for this is Elle magazine. There's something about it that make me say "WOW." It's just that, it's not a traditional way of making it because most of the table of contents I see have a white background and words, etc. -- BORING. So, I decided that this might be a god idea. When the pictures come in, I might consider the first option, I'm not very sure at this moment. My only concern is that, on the magazine, the table of contents is divided into two pages; which I can't do because the final draft only needs one page, so that's going to be a little difficult to achieve. Especially that I have about a hundred-thirty pages to cover and I'm expecting for the table of contents to be quite long.

Behind the Scenes (Article)

I didn't get much photos of me taking the photos to show production because the person I called over did not arrive in time and it was salient for us to be finished by 10, hence here are two pictures of me taking a picture during one part of the photo shoot.

Project Selection - Magazine

Print journalism is an easy choice to make; but, the production of the magazine itself can be easily overwhelming, but vibrant and aesthetically pleasing in the end. Print journalism screams the expression of a brand; it defines the brand itself. I've made a cover page of a magazine before and it actually turned out great, so print media might be a good choice -- considering that I have a little background knowledge. Based on the elements I learned from my class -- AICE Media Studies -- the magazine analysis and the blog samples did wonders in outlining my process. I saw what a magazine could look like, which is simple and not too overwhelming with vibrant colors or bold text designs. Other blog posts concerning magazine showed me what the blog should look like, what to do, and what not do. I like to consider myself to be an artistic person, I like my ideas to be aesthetically pleasing, and I'm pretty much extra in a lot of aspects of my art. So, considering my artistic capabil...

Table of Contents (Option 1)

This is my first draft on my table of contents. I have another idea for the table of contents, so that's coming up next. This idea came from Porter magazine. I really like it as it's simple and striking at the same time. This is what it's most likely going to look like, but the magazine has section titles and I might add it later on during the process because it separates different articles and ideas within the magazine. I might also add a little color to the section titles if I choose to do it because a plain table of contents doesn't give aesthetics. I'm thinking for the magazine title to also be colored, so it doesn't look bland. Most magazines I saw only had a single color and it seemed bland to me, which I didn't really like.
