Extra Pages.

Well after finishing my two page layout, i was looking over all my pictures making sure i chose the correct ones to fit my magazine and as I was looking over my collection of photos, I decided that I had more options that I wanted to share. So, I created two more pages that serve as a display for the pictures, kind of like a portfolio that are typically done in art magazines. For example, Dance Lifestyle Magazine issues several pages dedicated to a specific dancer showcasing one photo per page.
I left a caption at the bottom labeling who the photo is of and who it is by. Since this is technically an art magazine its wise to display the art, why not do it as clear and specific as you can? My choice of photos was one jump shot and one pose,the two compliment the dancer but also the photographer. These are probabley my favorite pages becuase the photos to me are so beautiful and I'm truly pleased with the idea of them being the focal point of a page. So here they are below.

   So as I said in by past "Table of Contents" blog, I wasn't really satisfied with the table of contents I originally came up with. The colors were too bright and juvenile while the cover of the magazine was vibrant with natural colors and more mature. I made another table of contents that fit what I was looking for, but its still wasn't doing it for me. So as I took the time to think it over I decided to start from scratch for the third time.A friend of mine guided me to a magazine website called Issuu  where I found an assortment of dance magazine examples. A magazine called Dance LifeStyle was the prime example of my magazine it had everything I already mentioned I want my magazine to contain,the interviews with a dancer, the must haves, and photography portfolios. For example:  So as I was skimming through the magazine I kept an eye open for an interesting table of content and each issue had one, the table of contents had a beautiful model in a scenic spo...

   Now that I don't have to worry about the photos anymore, because I have plenty, I can focus on the writing aspect. I've never considered being a writer or a journalist, actually to be honest I've never been good at it. When I was younger I think my mom and mom-mom (grandma) really wanted me to be one when they read a short story I wrote that was the exact synopsis of the 1977 film Pete's Dragon.  But I've always opposed writing, claiming it hurt my hand to much and drained my creativity. When it comes down to it though, it's because I'm just truly no good at it. I write poorly, my essays in every class have only ever been average. Only once in seventh grade did I ever write an essay that exceeded even my own expectations. It was for my science class, Mrs.Blumberg, we had to write a fictional story for a type of spider including actual facts and information. I created a dramatic story about the black widow spider that ate all her children and killed every ...
