So how do you think your production skills developed throughout this project? to be honest with you, doing this project really helped me um develop production skills - at the beginning, um, of doing this project I was completely lost because I did not know how to produce a magazine. I didn't know how to make a good-looking cover page or um a realistic content page. And I didn't know how to write a feature story that just - just flowed and and really captivated an audience. um but, with time um I was able to obtain new knowledge and I used blogger.com to um help me plan out what I wanted to do, what I wanted my magazine to look like. Um, I also would um blog about the things that I learned um so that I could incorporate it into my magazine. Um, and I was able to create something that looked realistic, that I was really happy with the end result. Um, I learned how to put these pictures together, I learned how to um really focus on color scheme because before I didn't think that was important, but I learned to focus on detail that would be overlooked before, um, and I think it just really helped me understand what a magazine is and what makes the magazine, um, and I was just able to put that into my own magazine. Um, so I definitely learned how to write a feature story with time and with planning and dedication to making the feature story the way I wanted to make it, Um, while actually having an audience that would want to read it. Um, and of course, I put time and effort into the way my magazine looked. Um, I used Canva to put these pictures together um to make it look as realistic as possible. So, I definitely think that my production skills were – Um, were because.. developed because of this project. *round of applause*

  Falling In love with you     It is no surprise that people have begun to idealize unrealistic beauty standards. Slowly wanting to conform into what majority deem as perfect. With social media becoming increasingly popular, most of what we see is altered in some way. We are in fact spreading the very ideas that make us miserable in our own bodies. Dissatisfaction in self does not solely depend on our physical being. This unfulfillment can be directed towards our mind, our body, or our soul. You may feel as though your thoughts or ideas are of unimportance; useless. You see your body as unattractive, “not good enough”, repugnant. You see your soul or the energy you radiate as dreadful. What people fail to recognize, is that these very things are interconnected. See your internal reality is projected through your external reality.

Evaluating Preliminary Task

 Evaluation: The preliminary task gave me the opportunity to improve my creative skills and expand my knowledge of photoshop/ photo editing.  It took longer than expected because I had to ensure that the color schemes fit my theme, the fonts depicted the feeling and message I wanted to convey, and that the pictures were placed in a way that would attract a wider audience.  Layout: The layout of my cover magazine followed all the necessary conventions.

Soon after his publication, more periodicals were being released in France, England, and Europe. However, the first published magazine in America took place in 1741. Many magazines that were released to the public were restricted because of censorship. In the nineteenth century, periodical topics varied from improvement, family entertainment, enlightenment, and amusement. Additionally, the first magazines in the United States that included illustrations consisted of Leslie's Weekly and Harper's Weekly in 1855-1922. Women were a big part of the consumer culture when it came to magazines. Helen Gordon Lazareff released a women's magazine that had an impact on the way many women thought, spoke and perceived themselves. With time, new magaz...
