Planning - Photo Shoot Scheduling

The Sarasota Sailor Varsity Soccer Team currently has 3 games during the week of December 17th, 2017. The games are earlier than usual. Typically, the Sailors play around seven at night, after the Junior Varsity Soccer Team plays, however they currently do not have any games, which means the Varsity boys will have to assimilate to the sun's heat which they will not be used to.
UPDATE:
The game on the 18th was cancelled due to a no show by the referees. The game cannot be carried since no officials were present, a scrimmage was thought to be a solution but a unanimous decision between the coaches was made to not scrimmage in order to avoid injuries. However, some photos were able to be taken of the teams were warming up, since they expected the referees to show up right before the start of the game. These can be utilized in the magazine, but more will be take again on December 20th when the team plays against the Sarasota Military Academy. The boys then play Port Charlotte High School the following night.
UPDATE:
The photos were a success, there was at least one photo of each individual player, and it was a 4-0 win for the team so some photos of the goal scorers were taken.

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.

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. 

Creative Critical Reflection #3 Draft

My production skills definitely became better during this project. I learned to use new Adobe software, such as InDesign. Having previous experience with Adobe programs, such as Photoshop, helped make the process an easier task, but I had to learn some new techniques in order to fit the conventions of other sports magazines. For instance, learning to justify text and place them in a certain layout that fits that of a magazine. Or, learning to export certain at certain resolutions so that the magazine is of high quality. Another production skill that was improved was communication. Since this was a group project, communication was one of our biggest factors in creating our magazine. I had to learn to work with the group to take everyone's ideas and come up with an overall plan that would incorporate everything we had come up with. Also, learning to work as a journalist. The process of creating an article and learning to gather information so I could write about my topic was new to m...
