more likely to buy magazines. The gender that my magazine will try to appeal to will be

into producing my project since I will have prior knowledge on how to create my print cover.

2. Project concept (200 words)
The concept for my project is to create a gaming magazine called “About Gaming”, this
magazine will include all the latest news in the gaming community from video games,
consoles, accessories, etc. I will try and attract audiences by keeping up to date with current
trends within the gaming community, featuring known gamers/videogames on the front
cover, create buy worthy content, create eye catching title bait covers that’ll intrigue an
audience. This magazines intention will be to educate and entertain the audience. I will
conduct this research by looking at current real life gaming magazines and see how they lay
out the design, communicate with the audience, present articles, gain audience’s attention.
I will use all of these factors to help influence me on how I will create my magazine to
become successful and appealing to my target audience. I will also gain research on my
target audience and what their preferences are to make my project seemmore direct and
appealing to my audience.
Evaluation (50 words)
I plan to evaluate my work by looking at other gaming magazines and comparing them to
my project, I will look at similarities and differences between the magazines and look for
areas of improvements with my work or areas which I succeeded in. I will also evaluate how
I put my work together and record when I struggled with tasks and how I could overcome
them in the future and also look at what I did well and enjoyed when creating my project.
