This morning i began by making some finishing touches to my research summary, and then continued working on my evaluation, where i added in some screenshots and details from our focus group.

I also noticed on the magazine front cover that we had not included the price or date of publish, and so i went back to that very quickly to make that change, and then was able to upload it and print it out for the final time.

To finish off today i made sure everything was uploaded on to pad let, and also printed out the QR codes for my work so that it can be accessed.

Today i began by completing the Location visit report, as there was a miscommunication with who was meant to complete it, and so i completed it this morning.
I also read through the final guidelines on the qube and organised my pad let to make sure everything on the checklist was uploaded.

Then i carried on working on my evaluation and over the next day i will be working on that in order to complete it for the deadline on thursday.

Today i made a few finishing touches on the magazine to ensure that it was ready for print. Once it was ready i printed one as a practice to see how it would turn out. However i didn't print it on the correct settings and so each page was landscape rather than portrait.

I found out how to change that and was able to print another copy the right way. That will be the physical copy of our work that we hand in, but i will also upload the magazine in its digital form.

Once that was done i began the opening paragraphs for my evaluation.

Today I finished the magazine, by making finishing touches on everyone's pages, as well as adding in 2 adverts behind the front cover, and as the back page, with some pictures Leah took at lunch time.

Now that the magazine is done I can print it out on Monday, and then begin working on the final pieces of work such as the evaluation and presentation.

# data[].attributes.body
Today i continued working on the magazine edit, and it was much easier today after becoming more confident with it yesterday.

I made some last minute changes to Leah's page, as the background we chose yesterday didn't look quite right with the pictures. I also completed Charlotte's and Latoa's pages. However i did run in to a problem with labelling the pictures on their pages, which is something i will try again with on Thursday.

Next lesson i will be editing the last 2 pages, which are the fashion tips and advice one, and the last quotes page.

Today i have been working on indesign to put together our magazine. The templates i done on word previously have been very helpful with getting it done quickly, as i was able to insert the photos straight into place on the pages, and just add in a few more details such as backgrounds and quotes.

I have now completed the contents page, my page and leah's page, and so am now a lot more familiar with how to put the pages together.

Tomorrow i will continue working on Indesign to get as much done as possible, so next week before the deadline can mainly be for finishing documents and finishing touches on the magazine.

Today before lunch time, me and the group used the photography studio for the hour, to try and take some pictures for our magazine front cover. This is because we agreed that the ones taken previously were not suitable for a fashion front cover.

Once these were done i had a tutorial session on how to use Indesign, as this software is going to allow us to produce our magazine to a high standard.
For the rest of the afternoon, i was editing the contents page for our magazine on there, and getting more familiar with it. On monday i will be able to get on with putting the pages together on that software.

# data[].attributes.body
Today i have been mainly working on my research summary, summarising all of the research the group and myself have done, and analysing the results.

I also worked on the draft article for my page, which i will be editing and finalising ready for putting on my page.

Today i have been working on my research summary, where i am putting all of our research findings, and the analysis of them.

I have also been planning out what i will write for my piece on my magazine page.
Over the weekend i will be finishing off the research summary, and also writing a draft piece of my page.

This morning i began by updating my padlet, which i have been doing throughout this unit, to ensure all finished documents are uploaded, and all diary entries are detailed.

I then worked on my action plan throughout the day, updating it with what has been done so far, and also planning for the weeks ahead coming up to the deadline.

Me and Leah also completed the focus group for the target audience research, and Charlotte completed the focus group for the target market research.

Once that was done, i added some more detail and analysis to the target audience responses document, and sent it to the rest of the group to use for their research summary. I then began my own research summary by including the target market survey answers, and noting down what members of the group done what.

Next lesson i will be carrying on with the research summary, and also planning and writing the article for my 'beach day' page.

# data[].attributes.body
Today i finished editing all of the pictures that we shot, and organised them all into their own folders, so they are now ready to be added into the magazine.
I also worked on the design of the magazine, by putting all of the templates into order, typing up headings and subtitles, and creating picture quotes for the back page of our magazine.

Now that the design of the magazine is ready, we are just waiting on the front cover to be shot, which will be completed on Thursday. Also for the articles to be written up, which we will all be doing separately for our own pages. The last thing is the 'tips and advice page' which will be written up tomorrow by Leah, once Latoa has interviewed the fashion students.

Tomorrow i could begin adding our shots into the magazine layout, so that it will one together a lot quicker when the writing is ready to be added.
I will also be working on my action plan, and completing a focus group.

# data[].attributes.body
Today i began editing the plans and the pictures for the magazine.
I began by looking through different font options for the magazine title, the main text, sub titles and quotes. I put together a few different options and then asked the rest of the group to vote on what ones would be used.

After this, i began a powerpoint presentation, where i created 4 different potential page layouts, and asked the group what one they would like their page to be, now this is decided i will be able to enter their text and the edited pictures straight into the template.

Today i also began editing some of Leah's pictures, where i mainly adjusted the brightness levels, and cropped the edges, so it would be suitable for the magazine.

Here are some potential texts for the main bodies of text throughout the magazine, as well as sub headings and quotes. We chose three to use continually to keep consistency, and they are 'cochin, Gabriola and PMingLui-ExtB'

# data[].attributes.body
For our magazine title we have gone with 'Radical' as it represents difference and standing out, which is what is encouraged in fashion.

Here i have put together different potential fonts for the front cover of our magazine. The final choice was 'perpetual titling MT', the middle left option.

# data[].attributes.body
Today we came in to do our photoshoot. We booked out the photography studio, and had a tripod, camera, background and lighting.
Our 2 models had 4 outfits each, to be included on each of our pages.
We took many shots and will include them all in the rushes log, to record the work, and from there choose what ones we will use for the magazine.
After we uploaded all of the shots to the computer, i organised them all into folders and will begin editing them tomorrow.

Today after our team meeting, we all split the documents and decided on who would be doing what.
My  documents are:

-Location visit report
-Personnel Logs
-Flat plans/ design drafts

I'll also be completing the production requirements document.

# data[].attributes.body
Today i finished and uploaded the first two secondary research documents, and then began on the production requirements document, which will help to outline the jobs each of our team have, and how they will complete their pre-production documents.

We also held our second team meeting where we discussed what pre-production documents we would need to do for this project, and who would do them. We split them equally so we all have three documents each.

Also, we split into two to complete the audience and market research planning sheets. Me and Leah took the target audience sheet, and she wrote up the research we would need to do, whilst i created and sent out the questionnaire, and wrote the questions for our focus group.

Over the weekend when some data had come in from the survey, i wrote up a little research analysis, to help understand and simplize the answers.

# data[].attributes.body
After pitching our ideas, as a group we discussed our ideas and came up with the final idea of creating a seven page fashion magazine.
This magazine will be based on different themes of summer, such as outfits for a bbq, a party or a festival.
The aim of this magazine is to show the skills of the Journalism and Fashion students at college, and incorporating them into one magazine.
There will be 4 main pages, where each person from our group will use their own style and fashion to create a page, full of pictures and writing.
We will use surveys to find out what our audience will most be interested in, such as looks for less, or high street vs designer.

Leah- Model and Writer
Charlotte- Model and Director
Latoa- Photographer and Interviewer

# data[].attributes.body
Today we began by doing our pitch, where as a group we explained our idea and how we would do it. Now that this is done we are able to start working on this project as a group, rather than our individual ideas.

Once this was completed i carried on with the research documents for the portfolio.
We also had our first team meeting, where we discussed roles, and put our individual ideas together to come to an agreement on the group idea.

Next lesson will be finishing the last of the research documents.

# data[].attributes.body
Today i completely finished my mood board after adding a few more different pictures and annotations for inspiration and extra ideas.

I then completed my project proposal, which will help to outline exactly what my idea is, aim of it is, and how it fits the client brief.

Today i finished off the powerpoint that i put together to help me with my pitch. This has made my plans a lot clearer and when it comes to the pitch i will be a lot more prepared than i would be without it.

I then began my research portfolio, with the first document being 'existing professional practice'.

I will continue this research portfolio throughout the week, and also present my pitch.

# data[].attributes.body
Today i added more pictures to my mood board which is helping to give  me an idea of what i want my magazine to look like, and i also annotated them, to explain my choices and my opinions on how i picture this project being.

# data[].attributes.body
This morning i put both of the mind maps i done on tuesday on one sheet, and wrote each point up in more detail. This has helped me to visualise my ideas and write a few things down, even if they're not things i particularly want to do.

Once i had done this, i moved on to task 1b, where i need to create an annotated mood board, so today i started just by gathering a few different images that i would be able to use for inspiration.

# data[].attributes.body
Today i started on unit 8 and began by reading through the brief and beginning to understand what i would need to do to complete the task.
I then started 2 different mind maps in rough, one for 'requirements and parameters' of the brief, and one 'project ideas'. On these i mind mapped a few different ideas as well as the potential problems and solutions.
