Today we had our interview with the Cambridge Evening News, we were greeted by a young girl, Ella who couldn't of been much older than myself (Amber) we took her to room C122 where the interview would be held. The interview started with the basic questions of name and ages and then we moved on to the magazine it self. We explained what the subject of the magazine was, which is to showcase independent clothing stores around the Cambridge area as Cambridge is known for it's chain stores like New Look, River Island and Topshop for example. Ella agreed with us and also knows many of the independent clothing store we mentioned. We were then asked about how we were funding the magazine and we soon had lots to talk about, we explained that we sent out hundreds of emails and then re-sent emails to companies who didn't reply asking if they would like to pay a small fee for a advert in our magazine, and many didn't get back to us until it was too late and we had already got all the advertisers we needed. She seemed amazed as we were so enthusiastic and excited about the magazine. Ella asked us if this is what we were planning on doing in the future and was surprised to hear 3 different answers, Leanne is going to university to study graphic design, Holly is going to university to study radio and I've decided that I want to go straight into work and start from the bottom and make my way up while learning the skills I need to hopefully become a director. We explained that even though we all want to do different things after college our skills all work well together to make this magazine successful. I feel that the interview went really well and I cant wait to see it on the website.
