3. Layout 1
This layout would be a
standard layout for many
magazines with one
massive story, then have
smaller stories, sometimes
to do with the major topic.
With this I decided to use a
awards show and turn it
into a 2017 recap for the
games industry, which
linked in the esports side
and which could be
interchanged.
4. Layout 2
This design is more
minimalistic because it just
tells you the name of the
magazine and the main
story.
The text is the same to
the previous because it
will be the same in the
final product.
In the final product it
would have more to it like
items received with it,
barcode & dateline, etc.
5. Props & Locations
Props/Costume needed Locations needed
I will not need props or costumes because York College.
All of this is meant to be in a magazine and
My magazine is about gaming.
