1. Location 1
For my first location I have chosen
a faded white wall. The location
of the wall is in Stoke Poges. The
wall itself is in a safe and secure
area with no potential hazards.
The reason I have chosen this
location is because it represents
locations across the country that
my target audience live around.
By enforcing this and portraying
images that my target audience
can relate to the target audience
can relate to the magazine and
will feel as though the magazine is
on the same level as them

3. Location 2
The second location I have chosen
is again located in Stoke Poges.
The as to why I have chosen this
location is because like my
previous image, the majority of
my target audience have had to
or have grown up in areas like this
and I think that my target
audience will look onto the front
cover or contents page or Double
page spread and will be able to
relate to the model featuring in
the magazine

5. Location 3
This location came across me
when I was carrying out my
photo shoot. I think that it
represents the wilderness and
can relate to some of my
target audience, by this I
mean that some of my target
audience will be from poverty
stricken areas and this
destination can relate to
them.

7. Reflection
• When starting my planning the first thing I felt I needed to do was to organise the planning itself. By this I
mean sort out everything and place it into a chart, this gives me an opportunity to sort everything out and
it also gave me time to carry out the planning section. I then organised my models I new some people that
I thought would fit well into my chosen genre, and they agreed to model for me. I told them what they
needed to do etc. I then organised the location of the shoot and told the models where the shoot was. The
shoot itself is in a quiet location and is out of the way of dangerous hazards. I then organised some
costumes and props for my models. I needed clothing that would fit my genre and I my self wear clothing
that people form my chosen genre wear so sorted that out. When on location I completed by Reece forms
thoroughly so that there were not any problems or dangerous hazards. Throughout the week I completed
the other various and important features that were needed when completing the planning such as the flat
plan of my magazine and mock ups of my front cover, contents page and my double page spread. When
creating my flat plan I used techniques that I thought would entertain and amuse my target audience.
Throughout planning I have learnt and discovered a lot more about the planning of magazines and other
various elements that occur in the planning stage of my task.
