PLANS


Explore the website and social media for a magazine in the GENRE you wish to make


How does the site maintain the look and feel of its print edition what extras does it offer?


Has the magazine you have chosen successfully adapted to the online/digital market?


Explain why? If not, why not?



The magazine genre that I have chosen is 'Celebrity Gossip', this would stereotypically be aimed at Females.

To start, I am going to start by planning one of the elements of magazines, the front cover.
