Project Revision Plans

After looking over my draft, it's fairly apparent that it was rushed and not as good as it can or should be. Just from a glance I can tell now that a lot of it needs to be altered or entirely changed, the cover page looks plain and somewhat messy, the table of contents isn't very visually appealing, the first magazine page hardly looks like it belongs in a magazine and the second page isn't much better than the first. For the title page I'm probably going to keep the same format but there is a lot that needs to be changed. The picture and text parts at the bottom look completely separated and its easy to tell that this was my first time ever making a cover page. The table of contents looks plain and boring, along with the different sizes of the pictures making it look unsymmetrical and weird. The first article page can hardly be called a magazine page as it looks more akin to a page on a pamphlet, the text box is weirdly positioned and the text inside of it is far to big for a magazine page, along with there being a very small amount of information actually being in the text box. The same problems are apparent in the second page and I can tell that I will need to almost entirely remake them.

Id probably try to advertise my product through social media platforms similarly to this magazine.

National Geographic Travel is an even smaller part of this large conglomeration of companies that has been published since 1984 and publishes 8 issues per year. As it is handled and controlled by multiple larger partners, it can be advertised across varied sources of media and across a wide and varied viewer base. It has been published in many nations across the world including  Armenia, Belgium/the Netherlands, China, Croatia, Czech Republic, Indonesia, Latin America, Israel, Poland, Romania, Russia, Slovenia, Spain, as well as the UK and US. National Geographic Traveler also has social media accounts on Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, and Snapchat. I would most likely incorporate the use of social m...
