HAND-DRAWN MOCK UP OF MAGAZINE HYPERLINKED PAGE ONE
After looking at various different websites for regional magazines, I gained a lot of inspiration for my own website pages. I then was able to go on and plan my own pages. The page is layed out in a sectioned format with various areas cut of from others, similar to existing magazine webpages. I chose this layout as it gives the page a strong structure and makes it easy to navigate around the site. I also took inspriration from other sites when positioning my titles and task bars. Following convention, I placed the title of my magazine in the top left hand corner of the page in bold, large text. I then added a task bar below the title containing various different headings making it extremely easy and simple for readers to use the website. Colour schemes are usually very basic on regional magazine websites and so I plan to follow this convention in order to make my work seem as authentic as possible. I plan to use the same colour scheme throughout my work on the various different pieces in order to show the connection between them. I also plan to do the same with my font choices so all work clearly belongs to the same magazine.
Overtime magazines have struggled to keep up with the constant progression of technology, because of this magazine websites have been changing in order to keep up to date. Certain aspects have started to be added to websites such as links to social media, downloadable pages and various different types of multi-media. To recreate this in my own work, I have added various different subjects to my home page including a newsletter sign up as well as links and share buttons to various different social media sites.
