Development Diary Week 6

This week i finished my first double page spread and made a start on the second one. For the second double page i decided to go for the theme of Equipment to tell new divers and general people what equipment is used while diving and the various costs of each item. This week was a difficult one for me because i really wanted to change my project but was told that it would require too much work to complete as we were already 5 weeks in. I feel like i am more motivated to do a different concept than continue with the theme of diving but i can't change it now. Im struggling for ideas with this project now but i guess i have to keep on going. The idea behind this layout is that it is not just pictures on the left and the text is on the right. I wanted a little bit of variety which will stand out to the reader. i did my research on each of the pieces of equipment i had photographed and added the cost in the description of what it is, does and why its useful/needed for. For the information about cost, i just used google for a rough estimate of what you would be looking at in terms of cost.
I really enjoyed photographing the different pieces of scuba equipment and editing it into Photoshop to create a double page spread for my magazine.
