Plan/Production 90 Page Flat Plan


For my 90 page flat plan I had more projects and pages filled with information than advertisements. Originally I had the table of contents on page 2 but then realized that all of the magazines I had done my research on did not have the table of contents on page 2. They were more likely to be located on pages 3, 4, or 5. I also realized in the beginning pages of many magazines there were an advertisement or two before the table of contents. I put an advertisement on page 1 and then a craft on page 2 to keep the focus of the reader but to also have an advertisement in there. After the table of contents I started to put more advertisements and articles to be seen. Later in the magazine is where I put my 2-page spread. I did not realize how many articles I would need to include an had to do more research to find them and information on them. First I did the advertisements and then I placed the articles within the advertisements. I tried to balance out the pages of advertisements with the articles.

It also shows different decorations to lay out around your house or anywhere you feel like it. They also have little captions such as "Spooky fun crafts" to try and get the reader to open the magazine. The table of contents is located on page 3 and includes many pages from the magazine. it has four pictures in the middle of the page with the page numbers listed in the corner to describe what can be found on those pages. The table of contents also separates the pages into categories based on what is found on those pages. They also advertise their online magazines and website.
