Task 1 project proposal

FMP Project Plan

Sophie Cheetham

MY IDEA My idea is to create a high end, editorial fashion magazine. I will use Photoshop to create the basis of the magazine and I will use my skills and knowledge that I have gathered over my time on the course. I will use other platforms such as issuu to present the magazine, blipper and layar to make my magazine interactive and modern and wgsn and other research materials such as existing magazines to contribute and provide inspiration for the material for the contents.

SCENARIO & INSPIRATION The scenario for my FMP is that I am the editor of the magazine, although I will also be creating the whole thing. The reason for choosing a magazine as my FMP is that it is a subject that interests me and I am someone who still likes to buy magazines however I think that they are heavily in danger of dying out as technology is becoming more advanced and people now prefer to read them online on their laptops, tablets or mobiles, which I think is a great shame because it takes away from the authenticity of the magazine itself. I would like to create a high end fashion magazine that isn’t intimidating to its audience and is modern and exciting as well as being useful to it’s audience providing relevant information.

COPYRIGHT ISSUES Copyright is a legal right created by the law of a country that grants the creator of an original work exclusive rights to its use and distribution, usually for a limited time, with the intention of enabling the creator (e.g. the photographer of a photograph or the author of a book) to receive compensation for their intellectual effort. Therefore when creating my magazine, I need to make sure that I am creating everything myself and not copying from sources or recreating any other existing magazines’ material.
