For my table of contents I changed my font and background color of my table of contents. This helped the text of the pages pop and helped make the title look less generic and more unique.

The first revision I did to my magazine was change the font to Hobo std. I did this so the magazine looked less generic and more unique. This will help attract more consumers because the title will attract them because they will find it eye catching and unique.

I plan to market my product through social media like Instagram. This is because most teens use Instagram and that is my target audience. There will be Ads bought on other social media websites like snap chat so that it leads people to our Instagram.

Today, sports illustrated   key  ages range from 18 to 40 with average income ranging from average to above average income levels and have at minimum finished High School. These readers usually belong to the active lifestyle and are  sports fans. The average age of the consumer is 37 and 77 percent of the consumers are males. This helps show that my magazine may attract more men then more women because they are more interested in sports. The social media website they use for marketing helps reach out to people and give them new sneak peeks of magazines and articles.

ESPN is a world know sports news distributer that makes the most profit than any other sports station. They also cover more than 4,800 hours of live and original streaming. ESPN offers sports fans live major events and original studio programming with the authority that they trust and the personalities that they enjoy. 76% of their viewers are males and 24% are females. The median age for the program is 48 years old. ESPN also uses things like social media websites and news ads to spread word to people of all ages.

USA Today uses many methods to engage their audience's. They use things like social media accounts and billboards to grab the viewers attention.Their distribution is spread to 48.8 million people every single day. That’s a lot of profit for the company. 71.5 percent of their consumers are men and 28.5 percent of them are women. The average age the magazine is targeting for is 44 years old. This may not be the case in my magazine because I’m looking to target a high school audience.

Today in class we utilized adobe indesign to lay out our 2 page spread. We did this by using the tools of text wrapping and changing the style of our font for our magazine to make it look more unique. I also learned ow to put columns in my article to make it look more organized. I was overwhelmed by the amount of cool tools that were used in this app but I'm very familiar with adobe Photoshop which is kind of like indesign. This application is going to help me advance my magazine in so many ways I can't wait to see what other cool tools you can use in this application.
