Now that my group has decided on common fonts for our cover page, I was able to design my final cover page. Using the picture I chose and the puffs, headline, etc I created on my cover page sketch, I created my supposed to be final magazine cover.





However, while adding the puffs, etc to my picture, I encountered a number of problems. The biggest problems was with my headline and strap line. In the last post, our group decided to have the head line and strap lie black. However, The area I wanted to put my headline and strap line is was shaded, making it harder to see what it said. I couldn't move it to the bottom right, either, because it covered the Pacsun bag. Another problem was the fact that my model and props were so close to the frame, that I felt that there was not enough room to put my puffs and masthead in. I wanted them both to be bigger, but I could not make them as big as I wanted with the space I had with this photo. No matter how much I rearranged the puffs, mast head, slogan, and headline and strap line, either the formatting didn't look right or there was just not enough room. I think I am going to have to select a different photo for my cover page.

To conduct the interview, I first needed to come up with questions to ask Alexa. However, I had to take into account that teens do not have a long attention span, so having too many questions and responses in the article may bore them. Eventually, I came up with four concise questions to ask her... 1: What exactly is fast fashion? I chose to ask this first because not only does it lead into the topic I am discussing in my article, but it will also show how much Alexa truly knows about fast fashion. 2: Where do you normally shop for clothes? Since many teens normally shop for clothes in the mall or at outlets, I want to bring this question up to explain to the audience how where they shop directly impacts the environment. 3: Did you know that...? With this question, I wanted to pull up some statistics about fast fashion to get a reaction from not only her, but the audience as well. With this question in particular, I looked up "the effects of fast fashion" and based m...

Today I will be writing my article... One of the biggest ways teens keep up with the hottest trends is through fashion. Celebrities such as Kanye West and the Kardashians have sparked up trend after trend, which has caused a huge demand for popular clothing stores to keep up with. Although clothing companies have been doing a good job at supplying the demands from teens, a lot of people don't know that they are actually hurting the environment by buying from these mainstream companies. I spoke with a friend of mine about this issue to test how educated she was on this terrible trend called... fast fashion. SO WHAT EXACTLY IS FAST FASHION? "...Fast Fashion is the process of clothes being mass-produced... trends go in and out and the clothes that aren't sold are put into landfills", According to Alexa. She is right. Fast Fashion is the term used to describe clothing that is produced on a massive scale to reach demands from consumers, including teens. These clothin...
