Project Proposal

My Zine will be focusing on the theme of myself in relation to others. I will do this by exploring different pictures and creating interview pages and making the interview questions about the person in the picture depending on a different theme of self that is related. I am creating my Zine targeted mostly at ages 17-25. Most of my pictures are related to parties and things happening in the moment, which I think is more relatable to people in that age range. Some ways i am going to experiment finding content is that the pictures I am using will be pictures of things that happen in the moment in my life, so certain moments at parties I go to, or of my friends, or of places I have visited in my daily life, which adds onto the creative direction of my Zine. I also think the fact that the pictures I am using are going to be of things that are happening in the moment, rather than posed and planned, is also considered a different way of experimenting how to find content. I also went to the barbican and took pictures there, which will also be included in my Zine. My BA direction is journalism. This will guide my Zine content because as I mentioned before, I will use the pictures I took from my day to day life and interview the people featured in them. Depending on the picture, each will have a different theme of self, for example, self confidence, self destruction, etc. In order to show this theme of self, I will interview the person featured in the picture and ask them questions that relate to that theme of self that I chose and that best relates to the picture. I will also be creating different adverts and advertising pages including pictures that I took that I did not use in the interview pages. One thing I need to improve from term 2 is being able to turn in my work on time. Last term I was a couple of minutes late turning in my work, and I need to be more organized and manage my time better this time. Adding onto that, I cannot miss any more days of work. I missed some days last term, and it was really hard to make up everything I had missed in addition to the other work I was given.
