Magazine Statement

What I am going to be basing my magazine on is my usual theme which is gaming, by basing my theme on gaming I have a very high amount of what I am able to design for my magazine, I am aiming to do some image manipulation along with some other parts for my designs, I will make my art pallet of image manipulation as an example of what I can accomplish, this can be easily done. By mixing textures with designs of levels, I can restructure and recreate areas, characters, items, maps, anything that is included within the theme.

Portfolio Research

While doing my portfolio I have been doing some research, pretty much you need to make sure you have atleast a good handful of experience using many different techniques and multiple of each to show you are capable of designing anything. Also making your portfolio interactive can also show more of what you are capable of, here is a screen shot of a website I have been looking at too.

Also I have been looking at other portfolios, one that really stands out to me is one by Steve Massey, here is the front page of his portfolio.
