Over the course of November, I attempted to write the articles for my magazine. Two of them were completed by the end of the month, but the third may not be finished until a little while into December. This delay was caused by a slightly heavier workload at school and the start of my new job. This will be made up for, however, in the first couple of weeks in December, with the rest of my plan being moved along to accommodate this.
I also developed the website version of my magazine over this month. I wanted to create a site that looked as realistic as possible, so I worked on adding some fake interview titles, a 'monthly' playlist of favourite music tracks and a subscription service based around the schemes that free/independent music magazines use to support their writers and editors.
My project now has a finish date of the week beginning the 4th of January 2021. This is a great deadline for my project as it allows me to take the Christmas break to add the finishing touches to my project and create my presentation needed to finish the project. I also hope to get a physical print of my magazine created for this, but this may or may not happen depending on Christmas operating times and the ongoing pandemic.
Over the next month, I hope to finish the last article for my magazine and place all the text in the digital copy. I then need to read over it to check for any mistakes and possibly change the page design for the 'independent artist' spread, as I'm not too sure that I'm completely happy with it. I don't feel like it fits with the rest of the design at this current moment, so I may take another look at some of my examples and find a more related concept to add. I also need to write the commentary for my project, explaining the choices I made throughout the process and how my skills have developed.
