Original ideas statement

My magazine will be aimed at 15-19 year old women which are of a middle to higher class status, therefore my magazine will look quite feminine. The advertisements I will use will mostly be fashion labels and makeup, some of these will be designer which are slightly more expensive due to the higher class status. The colours and fonts will also be based around a feminine audience and use appealing colours to females. My magazine will mainly include the topics of fashion, beauty and music, which teenage women would be interested in.

For the first 2 weeks of December I created my front cover, there was then our Christmas break. After the Christmas break, the first 2 week of January I developed my contents page. The next 2 weeks I used to make my feature article. At the beginning of February I added the finishing touches to my magazine and cleaned the pages up.
