(41) Wh-what do you mean!? REALLY?! Feature Lead Practice 1

 

Hey guys we back it again, today we are going to be practicing making a feature lead for our double page spread in our magazine. So basically I'm going to be telling little stories for practice, I suppose it will be pretty entertaining, obviously the lead is meant to catch attention.

So naturally I'm going to make mine crazy and literally insane, it will be a narrative.
Lets start.

Story: 
Some fat dude robbed McDonald's for cheeseburgers

Lead:
It was a dark stormy day at McDonald's, John the cashier was being overworked and underpaid as usual when suddenly a customer came through the drive thru, it was 3 am. John was naturally pissed off as he had been doing a double shift, when he finished taking the customer's order he told him come to the window. The night was deep and fog was rolling in from the humidity in the air, it really sucked for John. The customer suddenly when at the window asked John if he could add something to his order. John replied with an agitated tone, WE DONT ADD AT THE WINDOW. The customer told John, you don't even know what I wanted yet. John said fine, what do you want? Just give me your name for the order, I forgot to ask last time. The customer then said, sure my name is Rob-ROBBING YOU! He then pulled out a gun and said, I think I'll have everything in the register, NOW. John quickly complied, and just like that he had been robbed...


Alright guys welp I hope you enjoyed that lead, if it kept you at the edge of your seat and wanting to read more, then I've done my job wonderfully, I'll practice some more later and share them with you guys, until then, later...

Thanks for reading!

(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. I actually know a lot, I like to post my drip on social media, and if I'm being honest I wanna try to be a model some time in the future Q 2.  That's cool, so what do you do on a more day to day basis? A. Man I'm hustling out here, I sell clothes online, work at an airport, and I exercise just about every other day, bring them girls back home you know, haha Q 3.

(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...
