Planning - Interviews/Questions

Currently, the main focus of this 'Sota Sports' is the Varsity Soccer Team. The plan is to interview the some of the players on their team. Ask them how they feel about the team and what they want to accomplish this season. Overall, the basics of a sports interview will be asked. They have a decent record with a good amount of wins, so questions about those can be asked. The captain of the boy's team, Roman Ripo, is to be interviewed and hopefully another player. With the new head coach Mr. Parker, hopefully the players can give their opinions on how his coaching is going and how his tactics are working for the team. This is also Mr. Ripo's senior year of high school, making this his last year of soccer and he is soon to be a four letterman, so his opinion will have more importance and he has seen the team itself grow over the past years.

Some other parts of the magazine that some people may not notice aids in making the reader engage is the design of the text. The text was intentionally made to stand out with the beveled effect and drop shadow, which draws the readers eyes directly to it. Also, a specific color palate was used so that the entire magazine...

Target Audience Research

ESPN the magazine, has is one of the top competitors with sports magazines. They are at the top of the game alongside Sports Illustrated. Their magazine gains a lot of attention since they also own one of the largest sports broadcasting channels in the United States and in other foreign countries. They feature a variety of sports, some unknown or not as popular sports such as rugby. This widens the spectrum of viewers immensely, since magazines such as Sports Illustrated does not feature sports such as rugby or cricket. The magazine has typical features that would attract your younger audience, such as featuring current top players within different sports. They also have sponsored athletic complexes at places such as the ESPN World of Sports near Disney World in Orlando Florida. This means that who ever passes the sign, now is aware of the brand itself. This is how they gain majority of their exposure for the magazine and is overall a good tactic.

Feedback/Revisions

Overall, the feedback was good. There were minor issues with the magazine such as some white space, lack of photo variety, and needing to justify the text. For the magazine, the plan is to add photos in the table of contents of different sports such as basketball or other sports in general. Also, the pages as a whole may need to be redone, but maintain the exact same design. This is because in the process of making the magazine, the pages were exported at different resolutions, making some pages have a lower quality look than the others. The cover needs more text or better use of space since there is a large gap in the middle, so that page will be edited. Another important change that may occur is a change in the title. The magazine is targeting specifically one school, which does not open the viewing to many people other than those who attend Sarasota High School. In order to make the magazine target a larger audience, the title may be changed to 'SoFlo Sports' in order ...
