So this week we finally decided on our theme: Tourism/ Traveling magazine.
As the week went on, we proceeded to discuss the things our magazines had to have in common. These things not only included the title, font, logo and design, but also the content of our two page spread issue. We thought that it would be much better if we first decided on the content related to the issues, and then discuss upon the graphic elements of our magazine. That way we could adjust the graphic and design elements to the content displayed; and besides, it allowed us to spend more time working and researching on our individual content.
For the content, as I posted in my previous blog, our magazine is going to be local, and it going to focus in the city of Miami. With that being said, each of us selected a particular site within the city, in which we would base and develop our individual issues. For instance, I choose the Brickell/ Downtown Miami area, my partner Maria chose the nearby neighborhood of Wynwood, and my other partner Anabela chose Miami Beach.
Though the areas we’re working on are different, each with their own unique vibe and varying in terms of activities, our content had to share similarities. Therefore we decided to focus on activities, in which our target audience would commonly engage around our designated areas, meaning: restaurant, shopping centers, museums, among other recreational activities.
Now that we were clear on our duties, we were now able to start our research in our individual issues.
