PLANNING

Hi, today I am planning my magazine blog post. I will explain how I'm going to create it, when I'm going to start the process, where I'm going to create it, and what I'm going to create. I will start by taking photos at the selected location. The graphics are such a huge part of this project, and I want to make sure that they'resharing the enthusiasm and the vibe of basketball. Keep reading—you'll soon enough be able to see how it all fits together. Since my magazine is all about basketball, my front cover will be of my friend basketball-playing and showing off his moves. I would like the photograph to be actual, so I will probably take the photographs at a basketball court, either inside or outside, depending on what would be appropriate emotionally. That isreally what is important in the end—capturing the spirit of the game. I will do it step by step, making sure that it is being done correctly while keeping a steady pace in order to have it all completed and out of the way as soon as possible. I might be able to catch my friend in a pickup game to really emphasize the passion and raw emotion of basketball. This way, I can share the sport in its purest form so that others who love it just as much as I do can relate and become interested. In the process, I will also keep in mind the design and composition of the magazine so that the pictures, color, and words collaborate. I want to makesomething that not only is aesthetically pleasing but also has a story to tell. From the front cover to the last page, all of it should depict the real meaning of basketball—the movement, the culture, and the emotion of the game.
