Week 3

Today Marwah, Joshua, Loke and I further discussed on the content layout of our ideal magazine. We changed one of our content, 'Red carpet' section to 'ootd' (outfit of the day) section. We decided to change because we think that an 'ootd' section would better appeal to younger readers.

First row shows 3 options of the splash page of the 'Ootd' section. First option is having a collage of pics that are split into 3 horizontal rows. This collage is blurred out and the words "OOTD" will be in the center indicating the first page of this new section. 

The second option will have 3 vertical pictures blurred as a background and the words "OOTD" will be front and center.

The third option will have only 1 blurred picture of the model with the words "OOTD" front and center. This option is aimed to keep the page simple and clean.

My personal opinion is that the second and third option are more suitable. A collage of pics would be too messy and the simplicity would be gone. 

To get to the next page, the user would have to swipe up and the page would proceed to the next page.

Here users would be brought to the next page. After the user has swiped up, the background now is no longer blur but the 3 pics would be brought into focus. Users can then swipe up on each individual pic and the picture of the model will be brought up into focus which fills the whole page. Further description would appear alongside the model to explain more about the model/clothes.
