(16) Preliminary Task: Double Page Spread Explanation

 

Hey guys, so today I'm gonna explain my double page spread, how I designed it, what I was thinking, and of course the problems I ran into making it. I believe this is practice for when I do the real deal, so it's probably not official, just a rough draft. Take a look at it again-


Alright so my goal here was to make it look like a double page spread and what that basically is to me is an idea being conveyed through the use of two pages, I hope I made it very clear, I put ideas of one page on to the other and vice versa, you can see the spine of the page being halved to convey it's one idea. In the second page it asks what the "best programming language?" and it lists opinions like c++, ruby, javascript, and so on that can be seen on both pages to show they are one. You can see me making thoughtful and amused facial expressions on both pages as well. My main thought process in this double page spread was to show that they are one and share the same ideas and style, I believe I did this effectively using all original media produced and written by me. As for my choice in coloring I based it off my cover page to make it similar in style since I think it's an eye catching and engaging design style. Here is a picture of my cover page in case you forgot-


Yeah you know you love it, haha just kidding, but really I tried my best, it's hard to get awesome content for a cool high tech type magazine when you got to make it based off your own original media haha. I think I did a good job though, tell me if you like it, it's supposed to be a rough draft. But you can guess the problems I ran into making my double page spread, and that is trying to make it look visually engaging with limited original content.

Anyways, Thanks for Reading!!

(18) Editing, numero dos

  Oh you're still here? Huh...hmm oh yeah, almost forgot... realmente tengo que trabajar otra vez... I mean WELCOME BACK GUYS!!! LETS GET STARTED ON ANOTHER BLOG, OH YEAH!!  Alright enough with that, lets get down to business, today I'm going to be covering the second half of the content I promised you on editing, so lets list these terms firstly. These terms are jump cut, crosscutting, parallel editing, cutaway, and insert, not as many as before, but still just as important, lets begin... Jump Cut: Jump cut is when two sequential shots of the same subject are taken from camera positions that vary only slightly if at all. This type of edit gives the effect of jumping forwards in time. It is a manipulation of temporal space using the duration of a single shot and fracturing the duration to move the audience ahead. This kind of cut abruptly communicates the passing of time.​ For example in the image above you see the kid looking forward, but then immediately in the next shot he ...

(50) The real deal, really?! Feature Story Interview

  Hey guys welcome to another blog, so after the photoshoots I conducted an interview with Tyrone for our feature story, he gave my great answers to my questions.
