Mid-Term Submission

I developed these pages as they are now to take the form of a true magazine. I used these particular pictures in my articles because the fish were caught in or around my article topics location of Sebastian Inlet. They also show some of the fish species included in the article. I tried to lay out my pictures in an artistic and creative way, that doesn't take away from the content of the article. I chose my main article topic of Sebastian Inlet fishing because it gives a wide range of fishing tactics and species of fish to talk about it. Also, I often fish with my cousin at the inlet so he and I are very familiar with what exactly happens there. With being familiar with my topic it made it easier to put the article together.

Scouting Locations for Photos

 These are the best photo options for my magazine because I believe every one of these pictures will grab the readers attention and make them want to read the articles. The pictures show multiple fish species along with other things such as the environment and boats. These pictures stand out the most among the group of pictures I took. All of these pictures were taken at Sebastian inlet or Sarasota.These were the ideal pictures in my opinion because they contained many of the fish mentioned in the article. Having included these pictures it can be used as a visual aid to readers who may not have knowledge on the particular species of fish mentioned.

Photo Shoots

I will photograph pictures of my fishing trips I take with my friends. We made a plan that we would fish for two to three weekends in a row depending on how large the variety and how good the quality of fish we caught were.

Interview information

I  will interview my cousin Edward Nicolace who fishes Sebastian inlet daily, over the phone and asked these 4 questions about fishing at the inlet:

1. What makes fishing at Sebastian inlet different than other places

2. What time of the year is the best and most exciting for fishing at the inlet and why?

3. What type of rod and reel set up would you suggest?

4. What are the most common species caught?

The answers will be important to my readers so that if eventually they decide to fish at Sebastian Inlet they have background information and advice to put towards a more successful and exciting trip.

Table of contents Template

I have listed these articles in the table of contents for the reasons that I believe they intrigue both the angler and non-angler readers. I will use either one or two pictures per page to give the page some color. I will use mostly the font Bookman old style because it is a clean sophisticated font that is easy to read at any size.

cover template

Me and my group mates came up with the name Florida angler simply because we all live in Florida  and we love the state and really wanted to capture the state in as many ways as possible. As for the angler part angler is another name for fisherman and the tied in perfectly with the concept and idea we had for the magazine. For the title we used a classic bold font to stand out but not seem to flashy. For the sub articles we used a cursive type font to give the cover a more sophisticated and creative look to grab the readers attention.                                                        

flat plan

In my flat plan I included article ideas that would intrigue all audiences no matter if they are anglers or not. I included ideas for the anglers such as boat and rod reviews along with tips and tackle to catch different species of fish. Then for the non-anglers I included article ideas such as things to do in the upper and lower keys and articles on red tide which many people pay attention to.
