(28) WHAT DO I LOOK LIKE? A MACHINE? "Yeah lol"...Magazine Layout

If you know you know, AYYYY. Yeah he gets it.

Anyways today we are going to be talking in depth about Magazine Layout, now there are several types of magazine layouts, today I will be discussing the main ones, that being Grid-based layouts, Asymmetrical layouts, and Hierarchical layouts. So this should be a quick little yummy tasty bite-sized blog...yeah you like all those adjectives, yeah you do. Alright let's being!

Grid-Based Layout:

Grid-based layouts are structured around a series of vertical and horizontal lines that help to organize the content of the magazine. This type of layout is often used in magazines that have a lot of text and images, as it helps to create a balanced and organized look.

Asymmetrical Layout:

Asymmetrical layouts, on the other hand, do not use a grid and instead rely on the placement of elements to create visual interest. This type of layout is often used in magazines that have more complex or varied content, as it allows for more flexibility in the placement of elements.

Hierarchical Layout:

Hierarchical layouts are structured around the importance of different elements on the page. In this type of layout, the most important elements are placed at the top of the page, while less important elements are placed lower down on the page. This type of layout is often used in magazines that have a lot of content, as it helps to guide the reader's eye and make it easier to find the most important information.

So to recap we now know that the type of layout that is used can have a big impact on the overall look and feel of the magazine and we can see this in the 3 layouts we covered today: grid-based layouts, asymmetrical layouts, and hierarchical layouts. So as always I hope you learned something new, I'd feel simply awful if I didn't provide you the most quality and easy to digest information, anyways,

(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. The questions I had for him were more specific as they were meant for him and I gave him some about men's fashion since he is a man and happens to also like fashion in some sense. So let's get into the responses- -Start- Q 1. Alright Tyrone what's good bro, so what do you know about men's fashion? A.

(9) Let's talk...Mise-en-scene

Hey today we're gonna learn about...MISE-EN-SCENE!! But what is Mise-en-scene? Simply put Mise-en-scene is literally "placing on stage" in French; all the elements that appear on camera and their arrangement. So everything from the makeup that goes into a scene to how the scene is setup. Alrighty so let me get into each of the features for you to give you a better understanding of everything that Mise-en-scene encompasses. Production design: Production designers are the people responsible for the visual concepts of a film, such as television or theater production. They work closely with the director and producer while they design a style for the elements incorporated in a film. Location: The location of a film sets the mood and supports the action. For example, in a abandoned McDonalds the location would give you suspicion and a horror mood. Studio: A film studio is either a entertainment company or a motion picture company. These companies have their own privately studio...

(57) He will try- Double Page Spread Draft

  Welcome, welcome, WELCOME!! Oh boy do I got a surprise for you! As promised I have made a draft for my double page spread, not one, not two, but three. There were just so many ideas in my head that I had to show you some of them, here check it out! This was the first version, I thought it was pretty good, but I felt there were some flaws or design choices that could've made it better, so I did a little redesign just to see if it would look better, now let's see if it did- This is the second version looks awesome to me, I felt it addressed some of the problems with the first, and the color might fit in better with our overall magazine, but let's try these fixes on the black and white version- Honestly I think I like this version a lot more, it's just so unique and makes for an awesome double page spread, some more refinements will need to be done, but we have a good idea for our final version now. Also you may have noticed the feature story in the double page spread is...
