History of a Magazine

Image
      Another aspect that gives away how a magazine is formatted/designed would be its history. History plays a big part into what the magazine will be about.      For example, Ebony magazine was created by a black man, John H. Johnson to be in honor of black, African Americans. It was the first magazine during its time to showcase black people on its pages. This was historical.  https://www.britannica.com/topic/Ebony-American-magazine https://aaregistry.org/story/ebony-magazine-goes-on-sale/     Another example of a magazines history would be vogue. It was founded by Arthur Baldwin Turnure. It was made to be a weekly journal for high class people. It covered topics such as traditions of the high class, etiquette, media, and social scene. This made a huge impact on American fashion and lifestyle.  https://www.britannica.com/topic/Vogue-American-magazine https://www.google.com/amp/s/www.vogue.com/article/vogue-125-1892-2017-compare-and-co...

Reflection on Syllabus

      Hello, I’m back again! I want to explain how I feel about this course so you and I can understand my mindset better.        I’m honestly very confused on a couple of the aspects, which makes me very nervous. As seen in the photo below, this is a great representation of how my mind is as of right now. Aspects such as the format of the posts are confusing me. I’m aware we need a task and an intro, however, that seems to be the bare minimum so I’m going to search if there’s more things to add to each one.       Picking my idea for my magazine also makes me anxious.
