Planning #6-Flat-plan

Today I decided to create a 90 page flat-plan for my magazine. I did this by using a template that I found online and inserting text boxes to write on top of it, and insert my own ideas.

Ever since I was a child, I have thoroughly enjoyed doing photography. Therefore, I believe the magazine will be a good fit for me, since I will be able to put my photographs to good use. However, this project may be challenging, if I fail to brainstorm creative ideas for articles to match my photo-shoots.  Furthermore, photography is widely based on lighting, so timing the photo-shoots to where the lighting fits the mood or theme I'm going for may be a challenge.
