Use of Conventions

-
I chose it put my photos for my main article on the bottom so i could give myself more room to write information about questions i asked Matthew. On the table of contents i decided to put more than one picture on the page because i interviewed more than one person and if i developed more of my magazine they would have articles of their own. I wanted to experiment with different fonts so i found different fonts for my table of contents and my main article. For the pictures for my main article i took one picture with plain lighting then another picture with studio lighting. Since my article was about studio lighting and i wanted to show people the difference between regular lighting and studio lighting. I put the page numbers on the bottom of the pages because that's what i saw in the magazine's i researched and i thought it was a good idea. Since i put the page numbers on top of the photos for the main article i made the font for the numbers a little bigger and changed the color so people could see them better.

Target Audience-National Geographic

The target audience for my magazine are professional photographers and/or people aspiring to be a photographer. The gender could be male or female because photography is a gender neutral profession. The magazine would mainly focus on photographers in college and out of college looking for their passion. For my magazine i would advertise digitally like on Instagram and different social media sights. National Geographic: They advertise by having social media accounts, such as Twitter and Instagram. Also when you go on their website they advertise their newest issue. Another way they advertise is when you get your issue there are papers inside about how to order the next issue. Probably when you sign up they will send emails that advertise new issues and things like that.

Distribution

National Geography magazine has an app for people who want to read the magazine digitally. Once the person is on their app they can sign into their account then they can read different issues. If subscribers don't have a phone or tablet then they can just access the issues on their website, once they sign into their account. I would like to have a app like national geography does because most people today have phones and tablets and having a app would be easier for people to access my magazine.

There are many different steps to distributing a magazine. After you plan and prepare your magazine a manuscript of your magazine is sent to an editor. After the editor reads it with the writer input the magazine manuscript will either be accepted for turned away. If the manuscript is accepted then it will enter the copy editing phase. Which means every fact in the magazine will be checked to make sure it is accurate.
