Daisy Cushen studied various magazine genres and conventions for her media coursework project. She created mockups of college and music magazines to understand design elements like fonts, colors, and layouts. For her college magazine, she used photos she had taken and received feedback from peers. She researched article styles and conducted an interview for the music magazine, filming and evaluating the process. Overall, she explored magazine design influences and evaluated her work.

9. Fonts/colours I used basic ordinary fonts on my college magazine as the college magazines I looked at were very generic and I made an attempt to mimic that. For colours I made different colour swatches to see which colours went together, I also tried the colours over my cover image to see which ones were easiest to read on the cover.

10. Photography For my college magazine I used photo’s I had taken in the summer.
