The magazine aspect of this project took dedication and research methods to find the most accurate and up-to-date information I could write copy from. As with all of my projects, I find it very important to combine writing and graphics and to have a healthy balance of both for the reader or user to remain engaged. For this magazine, I focused on the aspects of extensive desk and field research, page layout, graphic design, technical writing, organization and fact-checking. I also had the opportunity to speak with local people in Calgary about their thoughts on food insecurity and conduct an interview with Anna Johnson, who works with Fresh Routes, to learn more about food insecurity from a grassroots perspective. This resulted in a 50-page magazine entitled "Staying Mindful," which came from the thoughts of being open-minded and understanding other people's situations.
