My Magazine, My Content

-

Hi everybody, I hope you all are having a great day. As the title implies, today I am going to dive into the way I would like to arrange the content of my magazine. Its colors. Its amount of writing. Given information, and of course, its variety of content depending on the topic selected (or not) for every timeframe it is published.

As stated, it will be "My Magazine, My Content" and with this, I don't mean to be completely new on everything I make since it is just impossible to do for any human being. What I mean by it, is that my

magazine will have all the discussed traits on my previous post "My House Style = My Magazine" arranged, based and made by me or contributors (meaning donated pictures) but, it will be highly inspired by the setup that "Outdoor Photographer" magazine has. 

The photography magazine that I envision has to be a splash of feelings, messages, entertainment, or all of them together when it is opened. I want it to convey something to the audience, to connect with them, to engage them into read/visualize it every time it is posted. 

For that, I plan to have minimalistic or abstract backgrounds on its pages. These backgrounds will have to enhance the mood, or idea needed to be expressed by the picture presented in such page/s. Not only that, but the fond will have to be eligible and easy to read for a smooth reading flow. 

The focused images have to have their respective author's information and if possible, the time/date in which it was taken below or even in the sidelines of the picture. I would like for the background information of the photo to be a story of desires, opportunism, spontaneity, planned, etc. I want each photo to have a meaning and to present meaning with which the readership feels related to. Not only this, but I would also like to have some content of the magazine to be about the "Before the shot" where it focuses only on teaching how to get shown image/s because this would make the readers be more engaged in reading it as much as possible since they can get to try new things on their own as they are taught by the magazine.

Magazine's Demographics

                          In this research on Magazine Demographic it was found that 78% of readers are Male and 22% of the readers are Females. This information will be valuable with developing my magazine. Although this information is from 2008 so this could change. MarketingCharts’ own  US Media Audience Demographics  study demonstrates a similar trend. During Spring 2017, 56.1% of adults surveyed said they had read a print edition of a magazine in the previous week, down from 61.7% saying so a couple of years earlier. The report reveals strong discrepancies in print magazine readership by age, with adults ages 65 and older about twice as likely as those ages 18-24 to report having read a print magazine in the past week (73% and 36%, respectively). The print magazine audience tends to be skewing older over time, too. The report’s 2017 data showed that 44.7% of US monthly magazine readers were aged 55 and older, compared to 41.2% in 2015. By comparison, just 29.9% of online adults wh

  The Birth of a Photographer   “Photography is the encapsulation of the beauty within moments, feelings, or emotions… It is just like painting with light” That is the definition of the word Photography for the blooming entrepreneur Joel del Olmo. At his age of 17, he has already found his passion and guidance towards his future as his enjoyment lays on the ambition to become a professional, recognized photographer. Though his passion spurred almost instantaneously after getting introduced into this pixeled world, his mind created long-term projects, goals to accomplish, and tasks to fulfill. He understood that doing nothing would take him nowhere and so he began his journey. Step by step. It was just another day like any other in 2018 when del Olmo stopped to look at his surroundings. To realize the details that only got glimpses and were never something to be mesmerized from. What he saw was; Beauty. Stories. Emotions… Art. “It was just there, waiting for me to see it and I was

Magazines' Research

Hi, this is me, (again) Jonathan on the other side of your screen. Today, I am going to go over a little research on some of the different genres of magazines there is. How many magazines do you know? Usually, many will mention the most common ones, while, others will be believing they’re giving a magazine name when it could be a newspaper brand name instead. Me, for instance, did not know any names of any sort of magazine! Being able to analyze my magazine “Popular Science” helps me understand what a magazine really is. It let me explore the similarities and differences one magazine brand could have throughout the years and how they capture people's attention which the little details, pictures, and information they add to it. This project was the reason for the development of my 3 main topics: fashion, food, and/or photography. The reason for it is because I was able to view different genres from all the different groups, sadly, I was not able to see more!  Moreover, why those thr
