Creative Critical Reflection

  Question 1 For the first question of my creative critical reflection I decided to utilize the software PowerPoint. I chose PowerPoint because it has the capability to display the magazine I was comparing mine to, in order to effectively answer how my magazine challenges conventions. I also was able to display an image, that effectively displayed how my magazine represented social groups unlike other magazines, witch underrepresented people of color. (In order to view click the tab located on the top of your screen titled: "Slideshow", then click "From Beginning", which is located on the far left on the top of your screen.) Question 2 For the second question of my creative critical reflection I decided to utilize a Prezi in order for my question to be both appealing to the eye as well as be able to include a picture of my marketing plan. I also utilized Prezi to be able to display the necessary information in order to answer the question of how my project engages w...

Final Draft: The Inside

After finally having my magazine finished and displayed in front of me; I can conclude that it came with a lot of ups and downs, but it was well worth it. I hope this magazine inspires younger people to pursue their dreams of being the next PGA star. This magazine should be shared to other talented golfers, so they read how others made it and how their story could be published on a magazine as well to inspire others.  

Post Production 2-Final Look Over

     On Tuesday March 2 nd,   I  began to work on adding  articles to my content page to make my magazine display longer than it really is. I fi r st found it hard to make up more  articles  that appeal to my demographic. However,  I was able to brainstorm efficiently from picking  peoples brains. I wrote down the ideas I received on paper then began to  emulate what was on the paper to my content page.  Then  made-up   numbers for my  content  page.    On Friday March 5 th ,  I gave my portfolio project one  last  look over and  concluded  that it was ready to be posted , whenever I was told to do so .  I am honestly  proud  of the product that I created. I feel that my concept will appeal well to my  demographic.  

Post Production -Editing

  On Friday February  5 th,  I   presented  my magazine  titled “The In side”  to the class my  peers were  ab le to  help by  point ing  out  the discrepancies in my maga z ine ,  that I would not have realized without the  pointers.  The  pointers  I received were that   again  my margins were incorrect,  I did not write enough in my feature article, I  was told  to change my placement of certain elements, I was told to increase the numbers on my  content page and add more articles to my content page.   On  Monday   March  1 st , I  began  my editing with fixing my margins, this was challenging at first because each  question and answer was its own text  box, so it was hard to make sure the spacing was accurate, w hen correcting my margins .  When I  performed my interview on the  athlete,   I was centering ...

Peer Review

      After presenting my magazine to the class I received some critiques, but not a lot. I was proud of myself after receiving minimal critiques. After watching other people in class get critiqued on their magazine, I slowly realized what I was missing on my magazine.      I was told to fix my margins, this was something I didn’t notice until my peers pointed it out to me, but it was an extremely valid point. Two of my articles on the cover page were hanging off the edge and needed to be moved further to the right and even with the rest of my articles. I was also told that my cover page of my magazine appeared to  actually look  like a real magazine, which I thought was the best compliment to ever receive on this project.   I was then told that my content page needed some changes before sending to Cambridge to be graded. I was told by my peers to add more article titles and description so it will appear as a true magazine. I was also told I ...
