Introduction:

For this term, I've been given the task to create 2 fashion magazine covers and 2 contents pages and a website.
While doing this I will use media in various ways. For example, I will use a camera and a tripod to take photographs of different models which then I can use them in  Photoshop to create and edit my magazine covers and contents pages.




I had the chance of remembering the codes and conventions of a magazine which I learned last year during my preliminary task doing a music magazine.
Codes and conventions of a magazine: 
-Masthead
-The angle of gaze (of the model)
-Contents 
-Feature lines 
-Headlines
-Plugs
-Secondary lead (sneak preview of an inside article or story)
etc. 

Furthermore, this year we had a closer look at the process of making not only one front cover and contents page but 2 (editions) of the same magazine. 
I have learned new terms as well as other terms that I had knowledge of such as continuity, cohesion and theme and how it relates to media and fashion magazines. 
Continuity is very important, as I deconstructed other magazines front cover and contents page I've learned how to spot similarities that were chosen to show a cohesion even a development in some cases in color, fonts, themes



The magazines that I've looked at so far are some of the best FASHION MAGAZINES.
