Researching more media texts

Since I had previously talked about the docuseries, Formula 1: Drive to Survive I just figured that I'd continue to research more about this docuseries for my project. I did some searching on Google, and I found that for marketing purposes, the Motorsport Magazine wrote about the docuseries. This is obviously a great strategy to promote the docuseries. So, for my project would I could do for my magazine part of the portfolio I can choose something kind of related to the topic of my docuseries. Since mine is primarily on the topic of how people express themselves through their physical appearance, I can choose make up brands, something like Sephora. I'm not really sure if they do magazines though, so I'd have to look more into that. Maybe clothing brands and things like that too. 

Ok so, I did some research for my possible print idea, and apparently Sephora does have a magazine. 

I had no idea about this actually, but this could work really well for me! Especially if my interviewees use products that Sephora sells. I'm not gonna advertise the products or anything like that, I just wanna see what I can do with this connection between a brand and my print. I'll see what I come up with. As for clothing brands, I think a brand like Zumiez is pretty common among people. Like, a lot of people like their clothes. Especially people my age. Zumiez does have a connection with the Thrasher magazine since Zumiez sells the skater aesthetic at their stores. They sell the Thrasher magazine and Thrasher clothes. So, if one of my interviewees wears something along the lines of this I can follow my template and go from there.
