Scouting Locations

-

The Location we chose for our shoot was the pier on Siesta Key beach Florida. The reason we chose this scenery was because the Siesta Key pier which is on Siesta Key beach, a barrier island on the Gulf Coast west of Sarasota, was named best beach in the U.S. in 2011 on the annual Dr. Beach list, and was also named tops on TripAdvisor's rankings in 2015.  Making a great place to do a photoshoot.

The reason i ended up chosing a long shot of the three cars as my cover pictures, was due to the space  left on top and botton, from the begging i knew i wanted to incorporate the title and subtitles of the magazine into the cover picture.

Marketing Plan

Based on our target audience research and research of similar magazine`s marketing techniques, our magazine, Drive-By, would likely market our product in three different ways. They would be billboards, social media pages, bus stop signs and other advertise-able space. These advertisements would include a simple preview of the magazine by featuring things such as nice cars and beautiful backgrounds such as a tropical location or a snowy mountain. On the advertisement, there would also be the name of our magazine, Drive-By, and a tag to our social media page/other social media pages in order to provide the viewer with the information of where to find the magazine. We use marketing visuals that align with the theme and subject of our magazine. For example, there is an action shot on our billboard of a Lamborghini driving by. We also use things such as a racer front and a clean black/red/blue color scheme.

We also used Photoshop to create the title of our magazine, using their "racer" font.  Our group had an advantage since our group member Aaron is certified on Photoshop and taught us the basic of editing pictures. We changed our font styles and designs in order to have a color scheme. We also used Apple Pages to help create and design our overall magazine issues, as well as to help establish pages, setting off all elements, font, and color s
