| orangina the cat | Posted – 8/28/2007 6:10:50 PM | show profile | email poster What do you call the section in the magazine for instance the "Style File" section of InStyle Magazine. Or in Lucky Magazine the "Shoes of The Month" section.? Where can I get information as to the terms for the breakdown of a magazine and what each section is generally referred to? Thanks, don't get mad if you think this is a lame question... |
| valentine | Posted – 8/28/2007 9:24:10 PM | show profile It's not a lame question--you'll probably get better advice if you post this in the beginner's section. I think it's sad when people have to post in fear of having their heads taken off for asking legitimate questions. I believe you're referring to FOB or Front of Book sections. These are just short sections that feature a brief hodgepodge of articles, usually with a particular theme. Since I don't have those mags at hand, I'm just assuming that's what you're referring to! |
| wannabewriter | Posted – 8/28/2007 10:03:00 PM | show profile I'm not certain its the FOB, as much as a trend feature page or column. Why don't you look through some of the contents pages and see what sections the stories correspond to. For instance, under Features or "news" , etc. |
| orangina the cat | Posted – 8/29/2007 12:42:57 PM | show profile well they all have different names such as "style" or "random items"...just pages that have products on them with prices.....I was wondering if there is a general term that you can use that refers to any section that is like that, in any magazine. Sorry, I posted here instead of the "Beginners" section. Thanks for your help! |
