Even though we still have the trade fair to get through, we have definitely overcome the biggest challenges of this project. Late nights, early mornings, designs, layouts, articles, interviews, photos and so much more. All of these have come together in beautiful magazines.
I enjoyed the challenges that this project decided to throw my way. For the most part, it was my designing skills that were put to the test. I love to write so doing my feature article was very fun. Designing the page however, not so much. Sometimes I feel like I have a solid idea in my head. Then I go to InDesign and try and map it out....yeah not so much the same idea.
All in all, I had a fun time doing this project. Despite the tears and challenges, it was a good experience. It was definitely interesting working with people I don't normally work with and trying to collaborate all our ideas into one similar concept. I still remember the first day of second semester when we really didn't know what we wanted to do. Now here we are, just over three months later with our very first printed edition of Spark Magazine.
Our magazine focuses on trending fitness and wellness trends. Everything from yoga to detox to fuel bands, we've got it. We will also have various samples of our work and some tasty treats at our trade fair for anyone who stops by. If you'd like to see more of our magazine or follow some of our promotions, check out our Facebook and Twitter pages, and come down to the Red River College (Exchange District Campus) Magazine Trade Fair March 28th from 12-4pm in the Atrium! Hope to see you all there:)
