Hello! It's crazy we are finally here. This my penultimate blog post. I have finished the magazine and I couldn 't be happier to show it to you. I hope you love it as much as I do. Feel free to leave a comment down below with your opinions. Yours Truly,       bsasza

Hello! As I said in my last blog, my magazine will be about the Bahamas. For the double-spread, I wanted to do something creative but as well as realistic. So I came up with the idea of 24 hours in the Bahamas. It is something that I can use in each volume of the magazine I am making. It would be like a staple article. Let me know if you like the idea or have any of your own that you would like to see. Yours Truly,       bsasza

Hello! Here is a quick update! I originally wanted to shoot in Miami, FL but since my plans hit a bump in the road there was a change of plan. Fortunately, it's Spring Break! My friend and her family are going on a trip to the Nassau and my family has decided to tag along. So my magazine is going revolve around the Bahamas. Can't wait for y'all to see the pictures! Until then, I'll leave you with this post. Yours Truly,     bsasza

Hello! I forgot to inform you what I will be using to create this magazine. The two most common options to create a magazines were Canva and Joomag. I tested both websites to see what suited me the most and I felt more comfortable with. I wanted something that was going to help me create the vision I had.  I have been using  Canva since I was a sophomore in high sch0ol so you can say I am an experienced user. I enjoy that it is user-friendly  with many virtues like free icons but it can be limiting as you can't be as creative with it as   possible . Our teacher, Mrs. Marchetti, has given us the opportunity to use  JooMag . A website that many  students have used in the past but as I started to play with tools and figure out how to use it, I realized it is not  as user-friendly. So I decided I will be using Canva instead. Yours Truly,       bsasza

Hello! As I stated in my last blog, I will be working on designing the layout of the magazine. I have already started looking at travel magazines to get an idea of what I wanted to do. Here is what I have been loving so far and why! These magazines are very minimalistic which many people are loving especially the target audience I will be focusing on. Although I do like these magazines, they not your usual travel magazine which is okay but I wouldn't like to stray so far away.  Compared to the magazines above, these magazines have more life to them. The colors are vibrant which makes the magazine more appealing to the eye, especially for a travel magazine. The ultimate goal is for the cover to be so aesthetically pleasing it makes the reader want to see what's inside. Hopefully, my magazine will be the perfect fit between the two!

Hello! I have barely started and there is already a bump in the road. As in my schedule, I was going to start shooting some pictures for the magazine but changes will have to be made. Unfortunately, my schedule, my friends, and my family doesn't coincide. I won't have the car this week to be able to drive to locations that I wanted to shoot at. My friends are also having a busy week which leaves me no one to shoot with. I have decided to switch the days I will shoot and layout. This will allow me to take pictures during Spring Break which is fantastic since I will have more free time but most of my friends will be gone. As I right now, I will face the challenges along the way. Now it's time to shift gears and get started on the layout. Yours Truly,       bsasza
