Before Easter Break, my class went to JPS to look at the archive of magazines and to learn about some other information, but I was not able to go since I had to travel back to my country that day. But, on the following day, I made a zoom call with one of my friends who went to the class so she could explain to me what they did and also explain to me some interesting information that could be useful for me as I was planning and building my zine. After the Easter Break, we started the first week of term 3 by having one session at campus and other one at the Barbican.
During the first session, we were required to bring all the work that we have done during easter break so we could create the concept board for our magazine. As I had created a concept board during the Easter break, I didn’t have a lot of work during this class, so I tried to work and add more information to my Project Proposal and to ask for some feedback about the work that I did during the break to my tutor. My tutor said that my work looked really good and that I worked a lot during the break, so this made me very happy. In the next session, in Barbican, I was required to create fashion images and moving images for the PR Package of my zine. I worked with one of my colleagues, and we created images that could be used for the PR Package and also for a fashion editorial in my zine. I didn’t really like the images that I took on that day at all, because in my opinion, they looked very commercial and I have been trying to make more conceptual and natural-looking images. But, as I wanted to use these images as well, I will be using these images in my magazine for an interview and then I will be taking new ones at Barbican for my PR Package. In addition, on that day I also asked my other tutor for feedback about the content that I created during the break, and she told me to go for more conceptual images since I have a lot of look images in my layouts. Based on that I took this as an inspiration for my other photoshoots. Besides that, during this week, I started to create content for my magazine. I started it by doing some photoshoots.
This first week was very exciting and I can’t wait to start building my zine.
Works of this week (NOTE: The content that I created on this day at the Barbican will not be used on my PR Package, It will be used for an interview on my ZINE, I went there another day on the following week and created a new content to be used on my PR Package):
