My production skills have developed immensely through this project. I now have experience working with applications that I didn't even know existed before, and I have a more trained eye on things like color combinations and overall appearance. I also learned why things belong where they do, and I know how to optimize the feeling that my magazine gives through proper placement, sizes, colors, and fonts. Additionally, I feel I have a better overall knowledge of how the printed media industry works and what goes on behind the scenes. For example, the way that media is marketed and sold.

My product easily engages with my target audience because it is something that isn't common with teen magazines, which should catch their interest and attention quickly. My product will be distributed through a website that will be promoted on Twitter or Instagram because that is where my target audience spends a lot of their time. Additionally, videos can be made about the articles in my magazine on TikTok to gain more attention as well. As for physical copies, they will be distributed through stores like Barnes and Noble and stores like Publix and target who have magazines in their checkouts. My product will also be able to be purchased through the website previously mentioned earlier.
My product challenges many conventions towards teenage girls. Your typical teen magazine is flooded with pop stars and bright colors. While this is okay to do because it's proven to have worked, it's important to notice that these magazines haven't been updated in years while society continuously changes. Instead of making teenage girls out to be bright and "girly" (not that there's anything wrong with that, just many girls aren't), my magazine will bring a more mature style to teen magazines that will be better suited for young girls in our modern society. In addition, it will place teen girls in a better light than modern teen magazines fail to do, and in the process, I will prove that there is more to us than pop stars and bubbly colors.
