ENTRY 2

I still need to create the timeline, finding a template that suits my preferences is harder than expected. However, I must have completed this my next week in order to make sure I am in control of what stages my EP will go through.

In addition to this I have also started thinking about primary and secondary data. I presume that for primary data I will conduct an interview with someone in the fashion industry as well as doing a brief interview with the people I chose to take photographs of for my street style extract.

For secondary research I am going to read and analyse current magazines as well as comparing womans magazine from the past and now. I will also look at statistic such as how many people read different types of magazine, how many magazines are on the market, what magazines do to target their demographic etc. This will give me information to aid me in writing the articles in magazine and making sure.

Completed Target: I have chosen to make my deadline in October as I think the summer will give me time to go out and take photos and make the final piece of a high quality.

Target: To have finished timeline by next week
