SD Idea 1- Multipurpose magazine

Topic: 
The project will be a magazine; it will cover a wide array of topics; such as video games, strategy games, current culture, new technological advancements, government, photography, fashion, news, movies, music, and the environment.

Problem I am trying to solve: 
I am trying to create a magazine that can captivate a large audience and show the reader the teenage mindset. What i intent to fix is how culture sees the average teenager; it is intended to show that teenagers are will informed individuals. I plan on solving this with a "tomb”, of sorts, that will inform teenagers or any reader with information that will open there mind’s eye and change how they see things for the better.

Why I want to solve this problem:
I would like to solve this because it seems like a project that will take time to properly develop and will last till the very end of the due date. This project also just simply feels right and feels like it will work great if done correctly. The project also seems very informative once completed and hopefully teach people something.

The learning Stretch:
This will go beyond my current knowledge on many aspects. The project will expand my writhing capabilities on a huge scale, my current skills in writhing are pretty mediocre at best; I obviously can write a sentence, use decent punctuation, and sufficient grammar, but overall I'm no writer. I hope to change that to an extent. My skills with Photoshop and other editing programs are "good" I thought hope to expand these skills by making a flowing magazine, that is both informative and "good to look at." My understanding of the world at whole is good for my age, I guess, I simply wish to expand and broaden my view on the world, then share my findings. I will expand my knowledge by tying all these thing together.

Project Components:
-Photoshop: This will be my medium, it is where all the work will "fall" and "flow" thus being organized.
-Microsoft word: there will be a lot of typing involved in this project; I will need an aid in my spelling and somewhere simply to put all the words.
-Camera: For the Photography section.
-Physical model of the magazine: To show what I did and its final form.
-Paper: This will be used to put the work on in its stages of design and its final form.

Budget:
The cost of this project will be low cost; this is so due to that the only money involved will be the printing of the final piece.

Possible Problems:
The only problems I may encounter would be, making it feel like a magazine or organizing it right.
Why or why not?
