Working Title:
Narcissus
Audience:
Based on other men’s fashion magazine, I feel as if my target audience would be 20-35 year old
males with a fair amount of spending money. This would mean they could be AB social status and
from the Emulator psychographic. I feel that it would be appropriate for the Emulator as the
magazine will have good looking men that they would want to be like. My target age is due to the
models being around a similar age.
Rationale (approx. 100 words)
I feel as if most of my work throughout this year will be quite consistent with new features being
added in with my learning progress. I personally feel as if my previous work on a magazine will
influence my current work as I wasn’t very comfortable with the double page spread I made. I
intend to use what I now know about fashion magazines to help me with the layout and design so
that I won’t make the same mistakes I made last time.
Project Concept (approx. 200 words)
My idea is for a men’s fashion magazine that will feature various different age ranges. My front
cover will be based on a picture that I’ve seen before and will be two different models pulling some
poses. My double page spread will feature a younger male and an older male to show the different
kinds of fashion for the different demographics. I plan on using two of my friends and my father as
the models, I will be using a camera I have at home and plan on taking several photos. I will
design the front cover using Adobe Photoshop and the pictures I will have taken and hopefully I
will have everything edited before putting it onto Adobe InDesign. My double page spread will
feature about two columns of text that will both be aside the models. The younger model will be on
the left side with the text to the right of him and the older male will be on the right with the text to
the left of him. The picture on the front cover will be based on a picture of Keanu Reeves where he
is pulling some strange poses with him large on the right and a smaller picture of him on the left.
Evaluation (approx. 50 words)
In my evaluation, I plan on comparing my work last year to my work this year and seeing how
much I’ve progressed. I will also compare it to an actual men’s fashion magazine to see the
differences. I will comment on my progress and how I feel about the work.
