Here is how my rough draft of my intended magazine cover turned out. In general, most of my ideas from the previous post are included in the rough draft. However, I added a couple of things. To start, our group came up with the slogan "Explore Your True Style" and decided to place it into the banner. We decided that this would be a good slogan because many people develop their own sense of style during their teenage years, and since our fashion magazine is directed towards teens, they are exposed to different styles in our magazine. Additionally, there was space on the right side of my magazine and I felt that it looked too empty, so I want to put something in there as a sweet spot. I'm currently not sure what specifically to put in it yet, but it might have something to do with a petition, an animal shelter, or a thrift store. One last change to my cover involves the model. Our group had no luck finding a teen male that wanted to be a model for our magazine, so we decided to just pick a girl instead. My intended model's name is Alexa, and I feel like she's a good candidate for my magazine because she looks very youthful and personally loves teen fashion and the environment.

After looking at popular teen magazines I decided to look at popular environmental magazines to help incorporate both genres into my magazine cover's edition. Here are some covers I found... One common theme among environmental magazines talking specifically about environmental issues is that the anchorage is often really intense. The model is often staring at or away the reader with a serious, almost concerning look on their face. The model's expression often ties into the headline and strap line to deliver the idea that the content it very serious and dangerous. The colors that are used the most in the magazines i saw were green, blue and red. The greens and blues often represent the colors of the environment, and the reds are used to grab the readers attention in puffs, masthead, and headlines and to represent danger.

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...
