Magazine Reflection

1. What went well for you during the process of creating this magazine?

I did not encounter any significant problems during the course of this project. I completed the layout of my photo essay fairly quickly after finishing all of my writing revisions. I constantly pushed the members of my group to complete their contributions to the magazine as quickly as possible but not sacrifice quality along the way.

2. What challenges did you face as you moved from an early draft or idea to a final product?

The only challenge I faced during the writing portion of the project was rewriting several of the sentences in my photo essay so that the subject noun and the verb were at the beginning of the sentence.

3. What other examples of work—student and professional—stood out as exemplary and served as a good model for your own work?

When designing the layout of my photo essay on InDesign I often looked at Ana and Leo's layouts to incorporate some of there design features into my own spread. I observed some of the techniques that they used to give their layouts a cleaner professional appearance and applied them to my own article.
