Caught my Eye
The Buddhist Review Tricycle Winter 2014 caught my eye the most out of all of
the magazines in the newsstand. I really like all of the colors and the interesting
way it is designed. It is an image that I could keep
looking at and find more appealing parts.
Caught my Eye (My Genre)
Intermezzo’s Volume 11 Edition 32 caught my eye the most within genre. It purely was my favorite because of the delicious
looking desserts. The magazine’s central image is really appealing which is why it caught my eye
Best Photography
To me, this magazine had the best design. I like how the cover lines,
masthead, puff, and pug go right around the
central image. The way the photographer capture the caramel dripping off
the cake is perfect.
Best Design
I absolutely love the photography of this
magazine. I really like how the elements of art were
used and the circular photography and design of
the Apple Tart.
Grabbed my Attention
These cover lines and articles grabbed my attention the most out of all of the food
genre magazines in the newsstand. Everyone loves comfort food and the way the macaroni and cheese is displayed really makes the viewer jealous. All of the
articles here look appealing to every body.
Best Table of Contents
This Table of Contents is from the Food Network Magazine in the
January/February Edition of 2015. This had the best because every single article looked appealing.
The image on this page also made it my favorite. The hamburger looks delicious and it gives the
page number to find it. I also like how the magazine pointed out the page numbers of the magazine’s cover lines. Many magazines did
not do this.
Best Articles
After reading several articles from food
magazines, I determined that Skinny Slow
Cooker’s articles were the most informative and interesting. They share yummy ways to eat as
few calories as possible which is relatable for
everyone.
Newsstand Reflection
After going to the newsstand, I learned exactly how I want to create my magazine. Overall, the magazines that
mostly caught my attention were those with interesting and detail oriented central images. So, my central must be interesting to gain attention. I realized after leaving that the magazines I picked up were because of the central image. I did not even look at the cover lines unless the
central image appealed to me.
