Magazine Tips

Our magazine covers should be creative and unique. We want to draw the audience to our work, not bore them. Along with being artistic, the brand of the magazine should be consistent. This shows the reader what they are reading so they do not buy an issue they are not interested in. To pull them in even deeper, the content should be hinted on the cover to show the reader what this particular magazine has to offer. The picture will bring out curiosity while the details will give the reader the interesting stories and reviews.

Photo #28 is at Home

Being in Iraq because being in a dangerous place like so is happening. Everything he has trained for has finally happened.
It shows his story and gives great emotion. You feel as if you could understand what he is going through.

PART 1

The captions are in past tense
They give us more information and emotion to understand.

PART 2

Ian went through many heartbreaks and emotional moments through out being in Iraq. He created lifelong friends along the way as well. Because of these created emotions, he started doing drugs and drinking alcohol to soothe the mental pain and anger he was enduring though out his deployment. Though later on he finds them useless and sobers up. When his years are up, he goes back home to marry his girlfriend Devin.
