Deciding Content for my Magazine

After researching the contents of a food magazine, I now am going to be starting to choose the content that will be best for the magazine. I have decided to create a food magazine but it will be a special edition to the magazine and that will be based on healthy food choices that also look appealing to the audience showing them how to make their healthy foods look well presented and also taste good. This magazine will be designed towards a young adult female audience .

 Title Name Ideas:

• In the Mood for Food
• foooooood
• FOOOOD
• All You Can Eat 
• Yummy Yummy
• Eatin Good

Cover Image :

My initial thoughts of what I think would be good to have as a cover image would be a full photo of a food dish. At the moment I am not exactly sure of what the exact dish will be but, I will begin to think of ideas and then make a poll to see which more people would be attracted to.

Location of Photo Shoots:

As of right now, I am thinking of shooting all my photos at my house. I will have to adjust the place of my photos being shot depending on the lighting. I plan on trying to shoot in multiple locations such as inside and outside, then figure out which one is more appealing.

Font Style and Color Choices:

For the style of font, I have thought a lot about how exactly I am wanting the magazine to look and the font style will depend a lot on that. I have thought that a bold but delicate font would attract a young adult female audience. This type of font would look nice since the delicateness of it would attract females but then it also being bold would go well with the party edition of the magazine. My color choice will solely depend on the colors featured in the main cover photo. I want to use colors that will complement the main dish and pull the some of the exact shades from the photo to make that the colors of the font so it all will look like it flows instead of a bunch of random colors.

Editorial Features:
On the front cover, with all the feature stories I will be speaking of on the cover, I am planning on bolding the title or certain words in the features to get them to stand out. The colors to many the features pop out will match alongside the main cover photo and tie in with the color scheme.



Ads and Brands:
On the cover, I might add some ads to catch the readers attention. The ads will relate to the health food theme I was thinking about doing, maybe advertising a new health food place to eat. I was thinking of maybe mentioning Bamboo Healthy Foods, Bolay, or Playa Bowls.


Specific content:

I am planning on doing the double page spread on how to make well presented acai bowls. The bowls will be served in a pineapple and the page would explain on how to make the bowl and how to decorate them nicely. On the cover, I am thinking of having the photo of avocado toast decorated with tomatoes or strawberries and  balsamic dressing, to make it look nicer. I will most likely put a photo of both in the table of contents, along with a few other healthy food items, like possibly banana bread muffins or even smoothies.
