The journalist

Today I (as the self-proclaimed writer of the group) forced myself to sit down and complete the magazine article component of mine and Lauren's portfolio project. For this sector, unlike any other, Lauren and I decided, based on our strengths, that it would be best to divide and conquer. While I was in charge of writing the article, Lauren's task is to take my text and strategically design it to fit magazine article conventions through the use of our favorite platform, Canva. 

On a previous blog post, I demonstrated the magazine layout Lauren and I planned on utilizing for this portion of the project. However, to no one's surprise, I wrote a lot more than what could fit on that template, thus resulting in us changing the layout to one that allowed more text room and that maintained the conventions necessary for this component. Below is the new template with the article I crafted already in place. 

As may be seen, we are merely missing a title; however, a quick touch-up will relieve this problem in a matter of seconds.

 I cannot emphasize how relieved I am to have 1 out of the 3 components completely finished!  2 more to go...

P.S: Editing time-mark is now at 4 minutes!
