Different Elements

Hi guys!

So my partner and have decided that we were going to do. Fashion magazine. Even though it doesn’t earn as much as lifestyle, it is a topic that we do enjoy.

Along with researching magazine genres, other elements need to be discussed. Some important elements of the magazine include color scheme, table of contents, models included and the certain “vibe” we want for our magazine to give off.

Colors usually help people judge a certain being or object. We associate red usually with anger and violence, light blue with serenity or calmness, green with envy or greed and etc. Peter D. Marshall, a film directing coach, adds that using color, “... can help add new visual layers to your film.” Also colors can help guide and convey messages. Our magazine edition is going to be summer and we wanting for it to have a collective and cool sort of aesthetic which is why we chose these color schemes. 

Table of contents is a magazine element that iiis very important yet frequently over looked. Placing a map bro help readers find the article or piece that they were looking for to make reading less of a hassle. Possibly adding pictures to the table of contents can contribute to increased interest in different parts of the magazine. The table of contents will be multiple pages (no more than three) and contain ads in between. 

Finally the models that we want to include in our amazing will be diverse. Diversity in many fields such as race, size and age have taken off in the modeling industry. People of color especially have had more exposure on magazines, which has had 30% increase since 2014. One state that was bitter sweet was the “increase” in plus sized models which was 0.1% and had the same models in rotation. Which is why diversity will be a topic that may have a major place in our magazine.
