I’ve spent today working on the website to go with the magazine. I seem to have managed to work out Mobirise a bit better thanks to watching YouTube videos and have made a home page and a couple of additional pages. I’ve tried different things with layout, colour, text etc and it’s still a workContinue reading “Website Creating”

I’ve been trying to work out how to layout the front cover of the magazine so that it is original but also links with “The Week”. I’ve looked at the layout of “The Week” and “The Week Junior” to give me some ideas. I looked at the banner containing the date, the issue number andContinue reading “Playing About With The Front Cover”

I have now managed to finalise my contents pages with the photos I took. I’ve also started work on one of the front covers. This is ongoing but below is what I’ve done so far. I still need to start the other front cover, when I have the right photos. I know what I’m goingContinue reading “Progress So Far”

When we went away in the summer, a Radio Times caught my eye that was specific to the coronavirus. The magazine featured on the front cover a man wearing a mask close up. The man’s face was the only actual thing that took up the majority of the space. The background was one continuous colour,Continue reading “Magazine Front Cover”

I’ve been thinking about possible photos that I could take for my magazine. Some ideas I’ve had include the impact on the environment the coronavirus has made, black lives matter, apprenticeships and jobs that people do. My magazine looks at the jobs of film writer and animator. In terms of photographs for film writing andContinue reading “Photo Ideas”

I’ve been working on my contents pages for both issues of the magazine. I’ve thought about typography, fonts and colours. The layout is only rough at the moment because I will be adding pictures to it which may alter it. Colours I’ve chosen for the topics in the magazines are as follows: Blue – CovidContinue reading “Contents Pages Update”

Current affairs magazine for 16 to 25 year olds – current events: Covid-19 – what’s been good/what’s been bad. Positives – environment/exercise. Black lives matter – less in the news now then it was although still relevant. Recession – less in the news at the moment but still a result of Covid and has anContinue reading “Magazine Content Ideas”

Having a look at some other magazine websites to get ideas for mine. VOGUE I notice this has a drop down on the homepage where you can choose the country that you’re living in. Britain and the US are on there. There are also Asian and European countries. The Magazine name is very clear. It’sContinue reading “Magazine Websites”

I’m trying to think of ideas of what can go in a magazine because that will help me with my contents page. This could be a range of things that cover people’s ordinary lives but also things that can help with the disabled and autistic. What it’s like getting a pet. (This could help withContinue reading “Ideas for Magazine Content”
