About
My name is Nicholas Isip, I am 17 years and I am a student at Transylvania college. This is my blog for my AS media studies course and shows my progression in learning about media conventions and how to make a magazine from scratch.
In this blog I will cover different aspects related to making a magazine and understanding the conventions of a magazine including things like magazine analysis’s, learning how to plan and execute a photoshoot, the creative process of making a magazine and much more.
