Textures

These are the two textures that I used for the Background of my designs.

(used in cover, tabek of contents, and Promo News)

(Used in the double page spread)

Naviation

 This is the Navigation bar for my interactive magazine. When you roll your mouse over the n, this bar comes down from the top.

In design final designs

This is the final design for the cover of my magazine:

The only part of this design that is interactive is the navigation bar on the top right of the page. 

Here is the design for the table of contents. The first image of is before any of the interaction. When you roll your mouse over the flags on the left with the page numbers on them, they fly in and the names of the articles fade into the yellow stripes underneath. 

This is the design that i came up with for the Promo News page in my magazine. There is interactivity on this page when you roll your mouse of the images on the left. If you hold your mouse on the image, The title of the promo news article (on the right) fades out and the short article fades in. It reverses when you roll off of the image. 



This is final design that I did for the 2 page spread. I used the green and orange colors to represent a baseball field. The circles on the sides are all buttons. When you roll over them with your mouse, they replace the "No Purchase Nesessary To Enter Or win article with another article. The names of the articles are placed on each circle.

Sketches

I started sketching out some ideas for the different pages of the and these are some that I came up with:

These are some of the images that I came up with while brainstorming for the cover, table of contents, and the promo news part of my magazine.

 These are some of the ideas that I came up with for the two page spread part of my magazine.

Interactive magazine

For our latest assignment, we had to make another magazine design for the 25-35 age group. It was called Promo Magazine. We needed to pick a topic for a two page spread, make a cover page, a table of contents, and design a "Promo News" section. The subject of this magazine is pop culture, so we had to base our magazine off of that. I decided to make the topic of my double page spread about a Fantasy Baseball contest called Beat The streak. The contest was to pick 1 or players in the mlb to get a hit. If you get a streak of 57 correct picks, you win 5.6 million dollars.
