Research - Magazine Inspirations

Research for Brief

Women's fashion is a good genre to convey a message that speaks out to people, as it is a form of art. The type of women's fashion I will be going through in this brief is going to be goth, which is an alternative style. The reason as to why I'm doing goth fashion is because society isn't very much informed of it and only knows it through the stereotypes. 

Below I will present (and explain) images of similar subjects I'm going to include in the magazine:

Title/Masthead:

The title/masthead of the magazine will be INNOVATION. 

INNOVATION is, in literal definition, is the creation of a new method, idea, product, etc. In context of this magazine, it will suggest new or unknown ideas being brought to light.

Font Inspiration:

The font I will be using will be similar to the image shown above.

The mood I'm going to go for with this typography will be mysterious and gothic. Additionally, it will give the readers a sense of uniqueness with the way it's styled. 

The color of this typography will be the basic black color, with the tone suggesting ominousness. 

Image for Front Cover:

I wasn't very specific with how the front image cover was going to appear like. I got this image off of Pinterest and I believe it fits the aesthetic and style of how my magazine will be like.

Colors:

The colors are mostly dark shades, "usual" goth colors, and blue shades. The blue shades will be apart of the magazine's overall design. The attire/fashion I will present in this magazine will be black and first image shades. 

Fashion:

These images in the collage are randomized, including both women and men in goth fashion. Their faces are usually painted with white paired with black contrasting accessories and clothing. The top right image is a girl wearing "traditional goth" fashion. On the bottom left is a man wearing goth cowboy attire. As for the top left and bottom right, they are the more modern stylized take of goth fashion. 

Reflection

To be very honest I didn't know exactly what to do for these blog aspects of the portfolio so maybe mines is off track. However I'm confident with the way my brief is going to be like.
