3. production experiments done
- 2. Process
- 3. Process To make this fishing magazine, I looked at a professional fishing magazine to base mine of and so that I know what it should look like. With this I was able to understand different conventions that editors use for the cover. I also used Photoshop to make this cover as I was able to get certain pats of it to look identical to the original.
- 4. Reflection • What elements of your experiments will you include in your final product? In my product I will be wanting to use side quotes so that the audience knows what the magazine will be about and the content that will be shown.
Editor's Notes
