A little introduction to everyone as to what my project is all about, how I managed to come up with the idea through the interests that I have within the fields above.
I explained the issues that I have noticed from this type of topic, that we as a society seem to always be connected, we don't go anywhere without our phones and don't seem to see the importance of looking up and appreciating what is surrounding us at that moment.
Explain how I want to create an 'outdoor lifestyle and creative culture' magazine that educates, re-inspires and reconnects people with nature and our surroundings.
Developing my ideas and looking for things to help inspire me for new elements of my project. Pinterest has been a fantastic tool to use for this process, because it is all image based, it focuses on the importance of creating an idea and seeing it.
Blog my decisions and processes along with my own photography that inspires me.
I am in Padraics group and I have found that we can brainstorm together, bounce ideas around and get help with areas that we are having difficulty with has helped a lot with my design processes and development.
What I have done so far; starting the application for the RG1 form, sourcing a printer, contacting 6 of the potential 11 people that I have in mind to interview and lastly going out and taking some photographs, I climbed Sawel, the highest mountain in the Sperrin range.
In the process of filling out the RG1 form.
One of the most important elements of my project is the final piece and this is my printed finished magazine therefore I see it very important that I source a printer who will be easy to work with and someone who I can begin to bounce my ideas off. I meet with Browne Printers in Letterkenny on Monday 15th Feb to discuss the idea that I have, the quality of paper, the weight, the size and the quantity.
