The name refers to my sole belief in the fact that I believe most parts of mainstream media and news should be questioned - this in-turn should intrigue interested parties with the same paradigm. Furthermore, I will also spend time developing a well written, easy-to-understand digital website which reaches out to a virtual audience. In order to meet the requirements of my brief, I needed to carry out specific research within my genre, and what other firms were operating as competition. So, an example of what I did, was analyse previous financial crash magazine editions (from successful competitors who share the same ideologies as theory.io ) This includes the design, photos and representation of the magazine. For my first edition of the magazi...
