(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,

(4) Wanna see something cool...camera angles

Guys & Gals !!!, I wanted to show you all something cool... I've been learning some awesome stuff lately in terms of camera angles and I just thought you'd all be interested in taking a peep. So lets start The first angle I want to demonstrate is the High Angle , a camera shot that looks down on the subject The purpose of the high angle is to make the subject look powerless and vulnerable, for example in this picture the subject is looking up at the camera as if it is a bigger entity looking down on him, this shot also makes the subject appear smaller and in effect more powerless. The second angle I have for you is the Low Angle , a camera shot that looks up at the subject The purpose of the low angle in contrast to the high angle is to make the subject appear strong and powerful, yep I sure do feel scared here, your buying that right? The third angle I've got is the Canted Angle , this is an angle that's well, angled of course, or you can say tilted, here take ...
