  As of now, I am very happy with the way the layouts are turning out. Everything is starting to come together and actually look like a real magazine. Some things that I still need to work on are adding the main body article and some pictures for the table of contents. This progress reflects on my original idea however some things like the types of shots I planned for, vs. what I actually used. Overall, I'm very excited to see how the final product will turn out.

  My product is a basketball magazine focusing on the unique aspect of what it takes to be the best from the perspective of a student athlete. This project has gone well and has become something that I enjoy putting my time into. This project has met and surpassed my expectations of how complex magazine production is.

In my producing, I’ve come across many challenges that were controllable and uncontrollable, however, I’ve learned a lot of unique tricks and tips to help get me through the process. One main point that I know now from the experience of creating a magazine is the number of struggles you encounter but also the amount of resilience that you can unlock in the process.

I still have to make finishing touches on the layout's design and alignment, but other than that, all I must do is take some more photos to put into my layouts and refine everything. Some challenges I have faced include variables like people, timing, lighting, space, and commitment. I need to be able to set aside time to be able to create the ideal circumstances for an ideal photo shoot. I will overcome these challenges by planning ahead and thinking of a well-thought-out process for finishing the things that I still have to finish. 2.   Strengths & Areas for Growth: There are many things that are working out the best, specifically the shots themselves. I have taken lots of photos, and looking back at them, some of them came out really well, and I'm very excited to see how they fit ...

 I have yet to get a physical copy of my peer's review, so I can't upload a virtual copy yet. I will do so once I get a chance to get it back from the person I asked to review it.
