 This week we continued on our camerawork by taking pictures for the volleyball and softball articles. We went to the volleyball court and took pictures of players during their practice. We then went to the softball field and took pictures during a game that was going on against the high school teams. After we took the pictures we decided which ones we wanted to include in the magazine and where we would put each of them.

This week we began the process of camerawork. We planned out when and where we were going to shoot our pictures for the magazine. We decided to take the soccer images at a tournament, the volleyball pictures at a practice, and the softball pictures at a recreational game. We decided that we are going to start taking pictures this week and next week. For this week, we took pictures of soccer and our travel advertisement and left volleyball and softball for next week.

To continue on our magazine, Adrianna and I started to create the text to our magazine. We discussed what we wanted each article to contain in it and what the main focuses of each would be. We started drafting our article stories and editing them, we included quotes and descriptions in each of them as well.

To begin our project, Adriana and I began with the layout of our magazine. We downloaded the InDesign app to begin the process. We used our paper layout to guide us through what we wanted our magazine to look like. We changed the backgrounds, edited font sizes, created titles to our articles and much more. The image attached is the cover page to our magazine and the dark gray spots are the outline of the athletes we want to have on the cover page.
