3. INITIAL PLANS
Process
I would say the strengths regarding these plans were coming up
with perfectmagazine ideas, the most juicy and interesting form
of daily gossip in order to attracta huge crowd into reading the
greatestof news regarda certain topic such as music or comedy
etc. Also, explaining in an informal proposal about what my
product will be composed of, what will be incorporatedwithin
the layout, words and images, and how the big texts and colours
are illustrated in a clear view. The plans helped my final product
by giving me a clear view on what I want to create,include and
what techniques of the Photoshop softwareI will be using to
composemy product and make it as interesting as possible. The
weakness however, I would say was explaining the mood board
analysis, summarising what specific factors from the existing TV
shows, and their best moments. Also, the bold texts from
products such as What's On TV and TV Today are so compulsive,
conspicuous and enlightened. These fonts were indeed
essential for my construction. In terms of required
improvement, I think that the mood board it self could have more
font styles involved, explore more on differentbold choices that
will catch the assertive eye. Also, I could have improved on why I
didn’t choose the other two ideas to createas my final
composition, and why I thought that TV magazines were more
powerful in terms of interest of the magazine world. I would
certainly think that these plans would have a great impact upon
my work because they are the first initial thoughts of my idea
and are a good reference source. Also, a good way of organising
my original ideas and looking back on them for inspiration.

4. RESEARCH
Process
Beginning with the strengths, I would say describing the
different replies within the questionnaire I created using
Survey Monkey.Amazingly, there was a wide range of
replies and each question seem to give a clear glimpse of
what the audience would like to see in my product. In terms
of how my research helped my product, it was really helpful
because it helped my to find inspiration and collect
information in what the audience embrace most about TV.
Also, the research really did capture some interesting
results from both interviews and surveys. I would say the
weaknesses were analysing the existing products, where
they were made, what was included etc. It was not easy to
explain about the features present on the images and why
they were included in order to please the crowd and draw
their attention. Also, describing the interviewee’s opinions
and what their thoughts tell us about the audience was not
easy because they had slightly different opinions between
them which was a bit difficult becausethis made them
different point of views. I could improve by collecting the
authors opinions on their existing products and what their
purpose is to the world is. Also, explore more existing
products and analyse them in more detail in order to gain
more inspiration. The research would have a great effect
upon my work because it helped me collect essential data
in order to make my product audience appealedas well as
interesting all the same.

5. PRODUCTION EXPERIMENTS
Process
In terms of strengths, I would say that creating the
magazine was the most strongest part of the process
because I managedto make my experiment as identical
as I can which was the exact objective.Also, describing
the process it self within the PowerPoint was really good
because I explained about the tools I used in order to
construct it. These experiments really did help my work
because it gave me an idea of what I will include on the
cover and how the layout will look like. Also, the layout
was useful as it is so neat and organised, it really did
inspire my work and its layout. The weaknesses however
was creating texts in Photoshop, so I ended up using
Publisher to create the text,then import them on my work
in the other software in order to make as identical as the
existing product. Also, the polygon lasso tool on the sword
fish was hard, it took me a couple attempts to get it right,
but I got there. In terms of improvement, I would say add
more detail to the process describing on the PowerPoint
and explain more on the positioning off my images within
the experiment. Also, I could’ve found a more identical
background for the image because it looks a slight
different but it would better if I found a better and similar
one. This experiments would had a good effect upon my
work becauseit helped me get a good idea of how want
my work to be set out, as well as the font in order the draw
the attention of the crowd.

6. FORMAL PROPOSAL
Process
The strengths of my proposal I would say would be
explain in full detail the products purpose as well
as the content that would be involved within my
product. I also explained about how my product will
appeal the chosen audience, which is all ages,
because of this I included elements for all ages to
enjoy. This proposal defiantly backed my work up
because it acted as a glimpse of what to expect
within the real deal. Also, it helped me feel more
organised when it came to crafting my product, it
was a reminder of what I wanted to create and not
forget. The weaknesses however was describing
the copyright issues because the pictures within
my product are from existing [programmes, and
were used in order to spread some upcoming TV
goodness. Also, explaining offence situations is
hard because I don’t want to cause any offence that
will make my magazine hated . I could’ve improved
by adding more about the working title, and why do
I think it is a eye catching name, pretty much an
authors opinion. This proposal has a great effect
upon my work because it helped me to become
more organised and prepared when it came to
making my product.

7. PRE - PRODUCTION
Process
The strengths discovered when making the pre-
production was describing the mock layouts of
my product, explaining what I will include within
my work as the process went by. Also, explain the
daily schedule was easy too, however I may not
have followed it as planned due to lots of time
went into each individual part of my work such as
the product itself as well as the reflection. This
part of the process backed up my work pretty well
because with a plan routed out, it gives me an
idea of what and how will my turn out like. It was a
good way of feeling organised and better because
I knew what I was doing. The weaknesses
however was constructing the contingency
planning because explain the issues and
solutions was hardest of all, coming up with ways
to fix the problems I may encounter. Also, the
health and safety issues was hard to describe too
because I was not sure of what I would come
across in terms of technology of a computer. I
would improve by adding more to the contingency
planning and how I can resolve the upcoming
problems I could have encountered. This stage
had a great effect upon my work because I feel
more organised and prepared for when I make the
final thing.

8. PRODUCTION
Process
Beginning with the strengths, I would say that
constructing the front cover of the magazine
was the biggest strength because I managed
to incorporate lots of bold texts, interesting
pictures and unique layout in order to please
my audience. Also, I am impressed with the
way that the TV guide has turned out, thanks
to the number of pictures and texts that I
have included to create a big variety of
channels. The weakness however was trying
to fit all of the text of the certain topic to
make it all fit onto the page, especially on the
third product. It made it look so tight and
hard to read which makes it a downfall. I
could have improved by adding more content
to the second and third part of the product,
meaning I could’ve added more programmes
and spoilers in order to draw my audience
closer.

9. PLANNING
From my planning, I would say that the pre production was the strongest part of my
planning because it acted out as a huge back up supply, meaning that it helped me when it
came to creating my product. I would say the planning backed up my work pretty well
because it helped me be more organise and explore key essentials to include in my
product that existing ones have today. Also, it helped me collect responses that come from
different opinions about the world of television. In my opinion, the strongest weakness
would be thinking of time limit, in other words trying to figure out if my work will completed
well in time with full detail. It was not easy because I had to figure out which days would be
best to do which part of the product. I could have improved my planning by exploring more
magazine and analysing them about their features and how they could inspire my creating.
This planning would have a great effect upon my work because it’s a good form of
preparation and helps me feel confident about the real deal when finished.

10. TIME MANAGEMENT
Overall, I believe I managed my time well a little because it took a little longer for
the production reflection due to adding lots of description of the process. Also, I
had enough time to make another double page spread for extra detail. If I had more
time, I would improve all my products by adding more juicy information and
interesting spoilers for everyone to enjoy. But overall, I believe I finished my work
on time because I am quite the fast typer as well as quick to think of what to
include to make it look perfect. Also, if I had extra time, I would have made another
double page spread to include more information for everyone’s interest.

11. TECHNICAL QUALITIES #1
They both consist of bright, bold colours that really do make the
image stand out.
The logo here looks a
lot more colourful than
the existing product’s
logo. Also, there is no
dates with the logo
unlike the existing one
which tells us which
week it’s promoting for,
which is very handy
because the audience
does not want to get
confused of when the
programmes are being
broadcasted.
The characters of
Julia Donaldson
are also shown on
my cover for
children to enjoy,
unlike the existing
product which
doesn’t.
The background on the existing
product is a simple blue, whilst
mine is a white to black gradient
for a more dramatic effect.
They both have pictures
of Cain Dingle on the
front cover because the
main storyline of the
week.
The big bold titles are
differentcolours and
differentfonts to each
other.
There are more
images along
the bottom than
mine and not
only one
programme but
other shows and
programmes.
They both have shapes with pictures of the
upcoming stories in order to show
spoilers and have everyone get excited
over their favourite programme.

12. TECHNICAL QUALITIES #2
My page is split in 4 sections, each concerns a topic of my pick and show
intel of what they are.
The picture
of My Little
Pony shows
a more
happier
theme to
the page,
whilst on
the other
product, it
seems
quite dark
and not
child
friendly,
mine is
suitable for
all ages.
A white strip can
be seen in the
middle of the
existing
products page,
this ids to show
the crease of the
magazine when
folded, mine on
the other hand is
not visible but
between the s of
PROGRAMMES
and the o from OF
is the crease
point, making it a
double page as
intended.
This spread has more
information than what my page
can offer, and it focussed on
image on page.
They both lack shapes for the image effect on their
chosen programmes or films, this creates a great
layered effect.
Both products also have information that pretty much
surveys the topic in discussion and tells the audience what
to expect form your favourite programme. This is key
because without spoilers, it will not be exciting to read and
not draw a huge audience in conclusion.

13. TECHNICAL QUALITIES #3
They both have a guide showing what is on TV for a particular day. However, the
existing one does not has any pictures for the individual programmes on the guide.
The picture on
the left of Cain
Dingle’s arrest
is not seen on
the existing
products page,
also saying that
the existing
page does not
have a giant
picture at all to
show case the
top story of a
soap.
On this
product,
there are
more
programmes
showcase
and a lot
more detail
than what my
product has
to offer.
They both have unique, simple and attracting
colours that really do bring out the inner element
of the product e.g. the style, layout etc. My product
however, has a rainbow effect on the guide page
which really gives it a taste of the colour wheel.
They are both pastel colours and really does give
the product a good vibe.
A hashtag message can be
seen upon the top of the page
spread, unlike mine which
doesn’t.
The main title in
my page is very
hard to read, the
existing one
however, does not
have a big title.
The main info
about the
programmes are
in a different
font and not
effectby bold
stance.

14. AESTHETIC QUALITIES I really do think my work
looks good, lots of colours
have been embedded within
it in order to appeal the
viewing public. I personally
think it was creative because
I managed to come up with a
very organised layout for the
product and make it an edible
design, making sure its clear
to identify.
I personally think that the
images are the best visual of the
magazine becausethey are so
interestingand excitingfor the
public to view. I could improve
my products by adding a wider
range of programmeintel, in
otherwords, adding more
programmes to the guide and
the cover.
In terms of strengths and weaknesses, the strength would be the creating of the cover because I managedto keep all
the images clear and easy to read. The weakness however, was deciding on which programmes to include on all
products, thinking of which ones does the public most adore.

15. AUDIENCE APPEAL From my questionnaire info, I believe my work has
appealedmy audience because there are programmes
that they adore which is essential to the goal.
I would say
the images
are what
appeals the
product for
the
audience
because it
shows the
public that
their
favourite
show is due
on schedule
which will
make them
happy.
The bold texts are also a
good visual because
they really do give out
the meaning of the
story.
I would say the organised layout would be
loved by the audience because organisation
is key to the world of TV and the images
sorted out in a good way is very achieving
indeed.

17. FEEDBACK 1

VERY EYE CATCHING, APPEALING. COLOURFUL.
•WHAT IMPROVEMENTS COULD HAVE BEEN
MADE TO THE PRODUCT?
SOME OF THE TITLES NEED TO BE EASIER TO READ =
NEED EDITING

18. FEEDBACK 2
•WHAT DID YOU LIKE ABOUT THE PRODUCT?
THEY ARE BRIGHT, COLOURFUL AND EYE CATCHING
•WHAT IMPROVEMENTS COULD HAVE BEEN MADE TO
THE PRODUCT?
IN THE THIRD PRODUCT, THE ARTICLE OF CAIN’S
ARREST TITLE IS SQUASHED SO IT IS HARD TO READ, SO
IT COULD BE ADJUSTED TO A SIZE EDIBLE TO READ.

19. FEEDBACK 3
•WHAT DID YOU LIKE ABOUT THE PRODUCT?
I LIKE THE COLLECTION OF IMAGES THAT ARE PUT TOGETHER. I LIKE
HOW YOU’VE DONE RESEARCH ON ALL OF THESE SHOWS AND WHEN
THEY ARE ON. A LOT OF THOUGHT AND EFFORT HAS BEEN PUT IN. I LIKE
ALL THE BRIGHT COLOURS USED IN IT.
•WHAT IMPROVEMENTS COULD HAVE BEEN MADE TO THE
PRODUCT?
I THOUGHT SOME OF THE IMAGES WEREN’T PHOTOSHOPPED VERY
WELL. THEY SEEMED A BIT SQUISHED WHEN PUT NEXT TO EACH OTHER.

20. PEER FEEDBACK SUMMARY
•WHAT DO YOU AGREE WITH FROM YOUR PEER FEEDBACK?
I AGREE WITH THE FACT THAT THE TEXT THAT BROADCASTS THE
SECOND ARREST OF CAIN IS SQUASHED, BLURRY AND NON EDIBLE
TO READ CLEARLY. ALSO, THE IMAGES TOO ARE SQUASHED
THEMSELVES, SO THEY COULD HAVE BEEN IMPROVED BY NOT
GETTING STUCK TOGETHER.
•WHAT DO YOU DISAGREE WITH FROM YOUR PEER FEEDBACK?
I DO NOT DISAGREE ANY OF MY PEERS COMMENTS, FOR THEY ARE
ALL EQUAL AND I DEFIANTLY AGREE THAT THERE ARE SOME
CORRECTIONS TO BE MADE.

21. PEER FEEDBACK SUMMARY
Based on my peers comments, I would make the changes they wishes, by morphing the
images into make them look more clear and easy to see. The same goes with the titles, as
they are shown to be seen to hard to make out, so I could have changed the text in order to
make it clear and easier to read.
