AICE Media Studies blog

I developed the cover based around how food magazines i researched looked. But i decided that i wanted to use a picture of someone standing in front of the restaurant i reviewed. It gave my magazine a different variety other than just food everywhere. Also the magazine is around Sarasota so i wanted to also use that as a local point for the magazine. My table of contents though includes my home made food and the picture was based around that. I wanted to keep this page simple and it portrays exactly what i wanted it to.  My two page article was based around the local Italian restaurant in Sarasota and it includes the outside and food that you can buy there. The layout is easy to read and follow and doesn't include that many photos.

Home made food photo shoot: One of my articles that I'm not writing about was easy at home recipes. So i did base photo shoots around the idea of at home creations.  Demetrios Pizzeria photo shoot: These pictures are focused around the article and the restaurant I'm reviewing.  Cover photo shoot: The cover is again based around the do it yourself Italian food. 

I will be photo graphing Italian food that I make at home for my cover  photo and table of contents photos. I will also be taking pictures of food from the restaurant Demetrio's because my main article is the review of the restaurant. A photo of my interviewee will also be taken at the restaurant. I have to work around the schedule of my interviewee and also the hours of the restaurant.

I will be interviewing my sister on her experience at Demetrios because she loves food and is very honest when giving her options. Also she is a vegetarian and I want her option on how accommodating the restaurant is to people with dietary restrictions.  The interview will take place on Saturday the 7th, right after he eats at the pizzeria. Also he Interview questions: 1. What was your first reaction when walking into the restaurant? Did it look clean? 2. What interests you about the menu? 3. Is there any vegetarian or dietary restriction options? 4. How was the service you received? 5. Would you visit here again?
