In the first year of Creative Communications the students get placed into a group of four or five to create a magazine from scratch. We create the articles, ads, the layout and design, as well as the public relations and marketing campaign.
Somehow my group landed on doing a curling magazine called The Hack Magazine. Three of our four members have never thrown a curling rock, but that doesn't mean we can't create a magazine about it! I wrote already about
my interview with Shannon Birchard, but here's a little sample of the other work I did.
I tried to show some photographs of curling athletes "taking over" other sports, like hockey, football, and rugby. They're laid out nicely in the magazine, I assure you, but in addition to this, there's loads of other fun content.
Larissa Peck talks about curling after 90 versus curling before 10,
Megan Redmond went to Morden to check up on their local curling club, and
Matt Bedard shoved his face into three different curling club meals. He's so brave.
The Magazine Trade Fair is on Thursday, March 28, at noon, and our booth will be rocking! We will have lots of cool giveaways, some special guests, and hopefully some fun games for everyone to play.
Comes by and check us out, and make sure to Like us of Facebook because we are winning the magazine Like battle!
