Work Experience: Seen Magazine (Liverpool)
Recently I went to a meeting at University as we were offered to come along if interested in journalism, editorial or graphic design. Furthermore I went along and met Rebecca Keegan who is the Managing Director and ContentEditor of the Gay Magazine in Liverpool.
After the meeting I emailed Rebecca asking what work she would like me to carry out, furthermore we met for a coffee to talk about what she would like me to do for her business. Firstly she asked me to attend a Press Release at the Metquater in Liverpool. Meanwhile, this was a nervous task for myself as I have never done this before, I was not a 100% what I needed to gain from it, however Rebeccas words were
"Talk to people, and have fun"
Well, I was at the event. I was confident, and spoken to the PR's who explained all the products which were going to be big sellers this year at the Metquater (Liverpool) named "Objects of Desire"- Champagne and Canapes on arrival too! It was almost my dream come true...
I took notes throughout, whilst getting the PR's emails in case they were needed when creating the publication. After the event I was given freebies of their products.. (how fabulous)
NOW TIME TO WORK!
The PR's sent myself the images as well as the information about the products and prices, therefore my job role was to encourage the reader to want the "Objects of Desire" whilst also graphic design the publication. Meanwhile, to do this I used InDesign, as I used this in previous work experience and thought it worked well.
