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*

So when I first started my um my product, I did do some research on what made a magazine and what were the necessary conventions I needed to use, um and I did find that I had to include a masthead, taglines, cover lines, um as well as have a cover model, color schemes and a barcode. Um, I did input these things into my magazine because I did want to make it look as realistic as possible. As for the social issues that were included um, my whole magazine is based off self-acceptance and I talked a lot about um the hardships that people have faced and what it took for them to finally accept and love themselves for who they were. Um, I think this is a really big issue today because you will meet a lot of teenagers who are not happy with themselves, um whether that be their physical vessel or the

And like I've said before, self-acceptance, self-love, you know struggling with self is just really common today, unfortunately. Um but that in itself has the capability of attracting an audience and making them feel like they're there. Um and the reason being is because they too feel the same way. They've felt down about themselves, they felt like they weren't good enough, they've compared themselves and that in itself um, yeah they just feel like, you know they can engage with us, we can engage with them with our words.
