Magazine Design
Photoshop Project
My proposed topic is: Bird Watching
I chose this topic because:
I chose this topic because I am interested in bird watching. In my spare time I like to take pictures of birds and figure of what types of birds I see. I have a website of my bird pictures. In May, I am going to a birding event called MacGregor Point Birding Festival. The magazine will give people an idea of what bird watching is about.
Some topics that I will cover are:
-
3 birding hotspots
-
About Ruby- crowned Kinglets and American Goldfinches
-
Interview with Richard Lee (my neighbour who bird watches)
-
How to attract birds
-
House Finch disease
Some ideas that I have for the photos I plan to take are:
-
Take pictures of birds on my feeders at home or anywhere else
-
Take different angles of my binoculars for an advertisement
-
Take different pictures of birding books for an advertisement
-
Take different pictures/angles of my feeders for the “how the attract birds” section
-
Take a portrait of my neighbour for the interview section
Other things I have considered for this assignment:
I have considered travelling to different places nearby to get different pictures of birds and different kinds of birds. I have also considered how the pages and the title of my magazine will look like and plan out where the pictures are going to make it interesting. I have also considered the questions I am going to ask my neighbour for the interview. He has travelled the world birding.
