As I had previously spoken about on my last post, I am having recurring issues with the InDesign application, so I had attempted to research any other approved applications to do my magazine on, given that applications like Canva are not exceptions. I failed to find anything, so I decided to suck it up and attempt to run the application at home. Fortunately, I had more time and patience, and was able to start up a file and get an idea of the color palette and other elements aside from our introduction to it in class a while ago.
Majority to all of the pictures in my magazine will be deep focus. The pictures will be taken on a camera with flash, so lighting will be high-key, but may change accordingly.
InDesign is a little tricky to work with, so the idea I had for my table of contents layout may have to be adjusted.
I wanted to clarify that some things might be changed according to convenience or other hinderers I might come across. Planning is just a general idea and it's not an explicit layout of exactly how the product of my magazine will be.
I know I want my magazine to follow the typical codes and conventions of contemporary magazines, but I want to add a spin on some of them for the sense of diversity and uniqueness that will make my project timeless; and characterized to my preferences.
I know I want to speak on these issues because I don't like discriminatory attitudes and I don't like predetermined standards, especially unwarranted ones.
I am speaking on these issues because I want to bring awareness and clarification on situation(s) that people may not know about or be too subconsciously ignorant or unaware of unintentionally. I have also firsthand witnessed these situations and how they impact people, so I believe it would be interesting to educate others.
I will attempt to try again will Indesign tomorrow and will document my experience.
