Genre Decision

 Welcome back to this weeks blog! So  In this weeks blog I will be deciding which genre or topic I will be choosing for my final magazine project for my Media Studies class at school. After lots of research and reviewing lots of magazines and the different genres of them I have finally made a decision on my genre..... FASHION. From looking at my previous blogs you might have guessed that a i would use this genre because I included fashion magazines in most of my examples. So yes my magazine will be based on fashion, specifically modern day fashion in todays day. I choose this genre because it is very important to me. Fashion is a form of expression for people to express themselves in their own style and own it. The way a person dresses has a lot to say about the persons feelings, personality, composure and more. I like this topic because I am the type of person who believes strongly on expressing myself and voicing my opinions and feeling free to do, say, act, and dress however I feel.

History of Magazines Part.2

 Bonjour people. Welcome to this weeks blog post! Today we will continue to cover the topic of fashion magazines as we began to in the previous blog. Fashion sense back in the day began to make a social standard as to creating classes. Fashion began to be a title and it was almost as if it was a competition on who had the nicest clothes and who could dress the best. It became a hot topic and something to give people to talk about in these times. After the first magazine 'Gentleman's Magazine' we know this led to the boom of fashion magazines overall. The french in the 17 and 18 century made that boom pop because self expression was ruling the side of nobility which was causing the eruption of fashion. People were drowning in fashion at party's showing off their most expensive and impressive items to the people. From this magazines grasped a better knowledge and realized that they had to acknowledge this and grasp the current styles to then illustrate clothing and new id

History of Magazines Part.1

Hello viewers, this week we are back with another blog! This weeks blog is going to be a bit more informational than usual, but we will be discussing the fun topic of the History of Magazine. In our Media Studies class we have discussed our Magazines, but before we begin to construct them we first need to familiarize ourselves with the history of magazines and their origin. In this blog post I will be discussing the history of fashion magazines at where it all began! To begin with magazines first began from the printing press which led to making it easier to withhold printed information on. In the 1700 and 1800 self expression and liberty were what led to fashion and the illustration of it on magazines. During the hardest days in industrialization, this led to many escaping their reality and discovering different things about their interests and wants. This made magazines boom and sell out as they were accessible to everyone and they were the hot item at the time. From this point and o
