Continuing on with the previous blog, these are the remaining  6 responses to my survey. Question 6 I asked this question so I can see what types of mobile games were favorited the most.  The highest voted option was mobile games that involved shooting. Tied for second place were mobile games that involved strategy and adventures.  Question 7 This question holds significant importance because gathering incite on there opinion on what color scheme would fit best for my magazine. There input would be very helpful as it would aid me in creating the best magazine possible and would help me adhere to there opinions as I would want my magazine to be visually appealing for them. Most people liked option 4 which was beige- green- purple (three different shades of purple). I was very content with this result as this was the color scheme I was the most fond of.  Question 8 This question was asked so that I could get an idea of what gaming Magazines were visually appealing...

  In today's blog I'm going to be discussing the tool I used when creating my magazine.    Canva  The app that I will be using to create my magazine is Canva. This app will be utilized to assist me in  organizing, structuring and coming up with a format for my magazine. Canva is the primary source for all graphics, font, colors, layouts and some photos that I have been using throughout this process.  With the help of this app, I have been able to enhance my skills to create a professional and cohesive design for my magazine.  

  In todays blog I'll be showing you the results to my first 5 questions on my survey, the following blog will show the remaining 6 results.  I have received 21 responses to my survey, and here they are, enjoy! Question 1 I asked what there preference was on two different types of video gaming to see which option was favored more. This question was important because it helped me figure out if anyone is interested in VR and mobile gaming, as my magazine is based on these types of gaming and there responses would contribute to the making of my magazine so I wanted there opinion. Most people actually did prefer VR gaming.    Question 2  I asked this question to see what device is the most popular or favored when gaming. The response with the most votes was an Apple iPhone.  Question 3 I asked this question to gain insight on what VR console the audience liked the most.

In this blog I'm going to be looking at photos that I can use as inspiration for my feature magazine. ( I feel as though this is a nice shot for a cover photo because the close up angle helps define the visual purpose and action.)  *Credit to canva.com for all the pictures feature* These pictures helped me grasp an idea of different types of potential angles and styles I can use for the photos I feature in my magazine. 

 

  My Target Audience for this magazine is the typical average gamer, you don't have to be a nerd or a genius, but if you play any game, whichever type, no matter what console, this magazine is for you. I want gamers to see all different sides of gaming from Console to Virtual Reality. In my survey, I put a variety of games that anyone could play whether you play a little or you play a lot or whatever. As long as you're entertained by any game, this GameVerse Magazine is for you.

                          How do you gather information for a magazine? What do people like about it? How do you know if your target audience will even consider looking at your magazine? What better way than to create a survey. This Survey will create a list of ideas and ways to gain more knowledge for the design of the magazine. Whether it be the color palette, or the games they want to  see. I have created a Virtual Reality/Mobile gaming survey to be able to understand what my audience truly wants. https://forms.gle/GLdBvBu7F7aenXx  <======== This is the survey that I created to gather information.

  Me and my partner Abeldar worked together to come up with a masthead that was proper and attractive enough to attract a crowd based on just the masthead. this is the masthead that we came up with based on our survey results and what we thought would be the best for a gaming issue magazine covering different topics and forms of gaming.  Our masthead and magazine title will be called GameVerse with sharp edged fonts that will provide uniqueness to our title and give a sense of video gaming like no other, GameVerse is to talk about multiple gaming issues including Arcade and Virtual Reality/Mobile gaming. Although that this is our final masthead title the color of the word Game will be different to our liking.

 

           In this blog, I am going to be presenting to you my feature Article I wrote about Amaiyah based off the answers they provided me while questioning them. Here it is. Lead How easy is it to flick the switch in your house, sometimes you’re tired and don’t want to get out of bed, sometimes you try being lazy and extend your foot or your leg to flick/press it, or sometimes you just get up and do it. Amaiyah is about to flip the switch on her educational journey and flip the switch on her life Nut Graph Amaiyah’s life has always been regular to her, nothing really special ever happened until the day it was for her to change schools. Amaiyah changing schools was the turning point in her life as great opportunities were to arrive to her.  Changing schools for a student is never easy as they have to meet new friends and new teachers. The day was coming for Amaiyah to meet her new challenges at Patriot Senior High School.  The day came where ...

                     This is the final lead writing practice I had before actually writing an Article based on the information that I gathered from a student which I will be speaking about in the next 2  blogs. Burglars are only to blame themselves for being caught. A study by a lieutenant has shown that more than 50 percent of burglars are in jail due to their own foolishness.  Lt. James Robbins of your city's police department has made a study of everyone convicted of robbery in your city during the last year. He has written up a 19-page report. The police were looking for answers—anything that might help them detect or prevent crimes. Robbins surveyed a total of 250 people, including jail inmates. He also interviewed people from other police departments, the sheriff's department, the district attorney's office and the Probation and Parole Commission. He questioned people on how their agencies deal with burglaries a...

              As we continue to practice more writing for my feature article, we move on to the second example that is given for this.  America’s Worst Nightmare becomes true, what is free is no longer free. The rising economy is killing everyone’s financial needs & now everything comes at a price. Many freebies no longer are free. Because of rising expenses and other problems, American business establishments are eliminating many services and other amenities once offered their customers free of charge. Many of the services that gasoline stations used to offer for free to attract customers have gone the way of the dinosaurs—they have become extinct. Gasoline stations no longer wash windshields, and many no longer even provide the squeegee, the windshield cleaner or the towels so customers can do it themselves. One station owner said he quit offering the service because his customers reportedly were using too many cleaning towels, which co...

                                    As I am working on my final piece for the magazine. I've been practicing some feature article writing with some leads. In this blog I'll be taking you guys on my first example of my first lead I ever wrote and with what information I came up with it about.

The president of a car incorporation now has to respond to 18 infurious poeple waiting for a reward of a lifetime Someone called 18 people in the city last night. The caller identified himself as the president of Rutherford Ford, Inc., 2780 Doss Boulevard. He told each of the people that they had just won a new car from his dealership. Interviewed by reporters today, most of the people who received the calls said that at first they just couldn't believe it. And they were right. They couldn't. Th...

                  Welcome back to my blog!!! It has been a while and now that I've arrived, I want to get straight to the point and dive into magazine research for general magazines of the market.
