Magazine Design

1. How does the design that you created demonstrate your knowledge of Magazine Design and the parts of a magazine cover and interior?

It demonstrates my knowledge because I used many elements in my cover that Teen Vogue uses.

2. In what ways does your magazine connect to the corporate identity of the magazine? What are some design queues that you used from the existing magazine?

It is similar to the magazine because the Teen Vogue font looks like the real magazine and many of the details that Teen Vogue has. I used similar word fonts, and the same picture design from the existing Magazine(s).

3. How did completing the brainstorming packet and sketches affect your design process?

In my opinion, the brainstorming packet and sketches were annoying and made the process more stressful because they took a lot of time, and the cover had to look similar to the design sketch.

4. How did you like working with a partner? How do you think working with a partner makes the design process easier and more difficult?

I did not like working with a partner because people have different tastes. It makes the process more difficult because you have to match your designs, and sometimes you do not agree on things.

5. Looking at your partner’s design, if you were to design your partner’s portion by yourself how would it look different? What would you have changed?

The placement of the photos and article would be different. I most likely would have not made the background red. I would chooses photos that looked similar to each other.

6. Describe the ideal partner (co-worker / co –designer)?

The ideal co-worker / co -designer put in a good amount of effort, and their design should be similar to yours. He or she gets their part done and submits their work on time.
