Post Production 1: Focus of Your Editing

Post Production 1: Focus of Your Editing  

            The previous blog showing the various critiques of my portfolio rough draft has allowed me to make a couple of changes to my project. I have changed the background color of my main article page as it was true that the black color had made the magazine too dark, and I had already used black for the cover page of my magazine. The fonts and colors of the text on the main article page have also been changed to complete the new background and make the article both easier to read and much softer to the eyes. I have rearranged some photos on the main article page as well to make the page look much cleaner. The title page of my magazine has also changed, mainly the location of the magazine logo/title and main article title have been relocated and changed to make sense a follow a more traditional magazine layout, as my peers clearly disliked the front-page title layout. Next week I plan to make changes to the final page of my magazine.

Post Production 2: Focus of Your Editing

Post Production 2: Focus of Your Editing                The final page of my magazine was liked by the class, but definitely required some separation of text due too the unique design of the page itself.

While I have done all that I believe is necessary to make my magazine a decent product, I am still disappointed that I was unable to find the phone that I wanted to replace the cover page photo. I have done the most with what I had and believe I have created a good product.

Magazine Cover Review

  MAGAZINE COVER REVIEW:             The magazines that had been shown in the interactive lecture during this latest week in class were normally passed during most of my life. I had never put much thought in to how much detail and symbolism goes in to making a magazine attractive to the eye and the mind. When magazines are positioned at the checkout lines in supermarkets, I would usually think about who was still reading magazines when the internet is so easily available. With the knowledge I know now however, it is obvious to see appreciation and enjoyment some individuals get from magazines.             Perhaps my stigma about magazines did derive from a belief that people would not be able to pay attention enough to a magazine to read an article all the way through. Magazines had been seen as boring in my eyes and to me, they were no match against the moving images a...

  I have worked to create this final product upon which you now have the pleasure of viewing. Countless hours of software creativity and experimentation have resulted in what now appears before you. From the elaborate cover page to the ingenious main article, allow yourself to be transported to the past which you may or may not have experienced for yourself, and hope to relive or experience that which has so clearly been passionately recreated. May you who reads this message, and anyone else who decides to bestow themselves upon the fruits of my labor find my work as wonderous and phenomenal as I have through my own countless readings and corrections. And, if you so happen to find there to be any flaw upon this blessed work, make your constructive criticism heard for all to hear, so that they may observe my effort to correct that product which I have so foolishly failed to deliver in my mission to create a perfect work. So sincerely, enjoy.
