A Community Magazine developed by the residents

 

Costa Rica Sims is currently gathering it's "natural resources" for an exciting new community ammenity.  We would like to produce a magazine that is centered around the community and also from WITHIN the Estate. 

 

We plan on accomplishing this with the expertise and experience of the residents.  This should be a simple task, since we already have many of the top experts in all the necessary fields as residents.  We have top experts in graphic design, fashion/design/modeling, writing, magazine editors, photographers, and so on.

 

As you may already now, Costa Rica Sims utilizes it's website for a majority of it's announcements and important information.  Currently, it's web traffic is higher than nearly any other SecondLife based URL.  If you go to http://alexa.com, you can type in any site to determine it's three month traffic average.  We feel that since we have such a broad group who would be interested in reading/viewing further information about the community, that it would be a benefical addition to our network.

 

Within the magazine, we will include the following concepts/ideas, and are open to any interesting ideas you might have:

 

*Designer showcase of the month - interview with designer of the month that is connected with the monthly fashion show.

*Resident of the month/At Home With - interview with one of the residents, which will include photos of their home.

*SLCeleb of the month - Interview with well-known avie in SL, that resides within CR.

*Home builder of the month

*Model of the month - Interview with one well-known model.  They could give tips for aspiring models, etc.

*Amenity of the month

*Various columns discussing where to find the best furniture and accessories for your home.

*How to give yourself a mini-makeover, etc.

*Fashion Editorials - resident models will be used in conjunction

*Gossip Column

*Event Calendar

*How to landscape

*Eco Awareness

*DJ Azu Turntable

*Monthly fashion show highlights

 

We are currently seeking experienced people who can help with the production/marketing of the publication.  Magazine staff will be compensated, as well.  We need the following positions:

 

**Chief Editor

**Editor

**Creative Director

**Photographers

**Writers

**Graphic Designers

Love & Light,
