Final Submission




I changed the pages on the magazine to match up with my flat plan. I also moved around some of the text to center it up and make it look nice and smooth.

CCR Question 4

I integrated technologies a lot during the span of this project. First of all, I uploaded and posted everything to blogger. I took most of my pictures on an Iphone XR. But some of them were on a camera that I uploaded to my computer. I edited some of the pictures on my phone, just like the background color. As I mentioned earlier, I used Canva to make my magazine. I used one of the templates and obviously changed the cover picture and the writing.

CCR question 3

My production skills developed throughout this project immensely. I used the website Canva to put my magazine together. I really learned how to alter the font to make it look good depending on the picture and the background color. I learned how to put a picture and change the transparency to make the writing come in and blend in. I definitely got better with the camera. I had no experience with an actual camera and I took about 20 good action photos of my teammates golfing. My editing skills got a lot better as well. After the second quarter submission, I got lots of feedback and I went and edited my magazine.

CCR Question 2

Our product engages very well with all types of sports audience's. Our magazine would be shared around the school every change of season. Not only will athletes in the school be interested to see what is in the magazine, but just students to see how their school is doing in all the sports throughout the year. Even adults around Sarasota would possibly be interested in seeing how they're doing. Our magazine would be distributed at sports events.

We are going to have 3 forms of marketing for our sports magazine, " Sailors Seasonal". Our first is going to be on social media, on Instagram we will post our magazine.( @sailor.seasonal ) During sports games at our high school, at halftime they will shout out our username to follow and go give a look. We will also have sporting events, marketing our  magazine when the spectators walk in and will be all over the event. We will also have a business partnership with the publications at Sarasota High.This goes along with my idea to try and sell our magazine at the sporting events that our school hosts that way instead of the magazine going to the target audience, the target audience comes to the magazine. 
Numbers of distribution should be high compared to other methods because everyone at each sporting event are majority of the people who would want our magazine.So like my portion would be distributed at golf events, and then other events such as baseball and soccer all day tournaments. If they are at the sporting event, they are going to want to read a magazine about that sport.  We also have our Instagram account to post our new magazines on and then followers will come to sporting events and get it there. We also have our magazines digitally on our website. You can sign up for 50 dollars and then a monthly subscription for 10 dollars. So therefore if you cannot make it to our school's sporting events then you can read online.
