The document summarizes the key aspects of the student's media product, which is an indie music magazine called OFFBEAT. The student used conventions from existing magazines like Q Magazine but added their own style. They focused on representing women and younger audiences positively. The magazine would likely be distributed by media companies like Bauer Media Group that publish similar music magazines. The student learned important skills in photography, Photoshop, and using different media platforms to construct and showcase their product. The target audience is people interested in indie music and alternative genres.
My media product uses some conventions of real magazines but also challenges some conventions. On the front cover and contents page, I used typical layouts but challenged conventions in some ways, like only including cover lines on one side initially. My double page spread originally challenged conventions by centering the image but I changed it based on feedback. Through this process, I learned to use new technologies like Photoshop and gained experience with tools like Blogger.
I organized my photo shoot by texting my two models to arrange a suitable time and location. I also discussed costumes with the models. For the shoot, I planned to capture different shots including a mid-shot for the cover to show the model's face and clothing up close, a long shot for the contents page to show the full body looking away from the camera, and another long shot for a double page spread which is a common convention for that format.
Evaluation 2 : How does your media product represent particular social groups?Rebekahhooper16
My media magazine represents particular social groups through its content and imagery. It targets youth ages 16-24 who are interested in urban culture and the rap/R&B genre. It portrays this demographic through images of artists that conform to genre stereotypes, using a mix of English and slang. Both male and female genders are represented equally. The magazine challenges some stereotypes by featuring a Black male artist dressed professionally in a suit, showing the progression one can make in the industry. Overall it aims to appeal to its lower-middle class target audience interested in this music style and lifestyle.
In what ways does your media product use, develop or challenge forms and conv...GraceSpenceley
The media product uses, develops, and challenges conventions of real music videos and magazines. It challenges conventions by not featuring the singer and instead using a narrative-based fairy tale concept. However, it still uses close-up shots of the actor and carefully placed props to aid the story as in typical music videos. It also follows fairy tale conventions but adapts them, like the protagonist waking without a prince. The magazine ad centers the text and places social media logos at the bottom like real ads. The digipak represents the artist through talent rather than sexualization, challenging typical portrayals.

This magazine summary analyzes the cover of a dubstep music magazine. The masthead uses white text in a slang font to appeal to a younger audience aged 17-20. The main image shows three young men looking directly at the viewer, likely to create intimacy or portray a tough image. Due to dubstep's smaller popularity, the men do not overlap the masthead like in more mainstream magazines. The largest cover line advertises a "Summer of Dub," suggesting the magazine targets serious fans and covers summer dubstep music.

The document discusses changes made to the layout and design of a digipak. Feedback indicated the original design looked more like a DVD than a CD, so the layout was changed to a standard CD format. This involved changing the size and cropping of images to fit the new 9x9 dimension for a more realistic appearance. The text was made smaller to fit within images. The overall layout and elements remained largely the same, but images are now closer together to create a more intimate feel. A magazine ad was also updated to feature the new main image from the redesigned digipak.
Kabita Nepali created a magazine advertisement to promote an artist's debut album. She went through several stages of layout design before deciding on the final version. The final ad features the artist's image from the album digipak cover. Kabita chose this image because it would allow consumers to easily find the related digipak product. The ad's simple design stands out while providing just enough information, like the album being debut and now available, to intrigue consumers without giving away too many details. The goal was to create an eye-catching and appealing advertisement that would encourage consumers to learn more about the artist and purchase the album.
The document discusses logo design improvements for promoting a music video. The author presents four initial logo ideas and selects Idea 2 to update the original logo. The new logo swaps the text and background colors to black text on a white background for increased appeal and visibility compared to the original logo.
Here I analyse two digipaks and talk about the appealing aspects of the digipaks, which includes the layout of the digipak, the pictures on the digipak and how it affects the overall layout of the digipak, also the colour theme of the digipaks and etc.
Kabita Nepali chose outdoor locations that would make their video appealing with many scenic backdrops and easy to film with just shots of the main protagonist in each location following the narrative. Both outdoor and indoor locations were selected to show differences in time between present and past. Indoor scenes will focus on close-ups of the protagonist lip syncing or pointing things out to aid the audience's understanding. The locations are close by but fit the narrative of searching for someone and are aesthetically pleasing. Footage will be edited to meet aesthetic standards and clearly convey the narrative.

Temple of Asclepius in Thrace. Excavation resultsKrassimira Luka
The temple and the sanctuary around were dedicated to Asklepios Zmidrenus. This name has been known since 1875 when an inscription dedicated to him was discovered in Rome. The inscription is dated in 227 AD and was left by soldiers originating from the city of Philippopolis (modern Plovdiv).
A Visual Guide to 1 Samuel | A Tale of Two HeartsSteve Thomason
These slides walk through the story of 1 Samuel. Samuel is the last judge of Israel. The people reject God and want a king. Saul is anointed as the first king, but he is not a good king. David, the shepherd boy is anointed and Saul is envious of him. David shows honor while Saul continues to self destruct.
2. Masthead-
The masthead is in white, which can
connotate to light, good and honesty. This
stands out against the red background,
behind the masthead, which can connotate
to passion, energy, danger and anger. This
makes us think that this magazine is
portrayed as powerful honest magazine that
is also dangerous and energetic. Which
supports it’s genre, which is Rock’n’roll.
Selling lines/cover lines
It stands out by being lighter then the
background. The white connotates to good,
purity and freedom where the red
connatates to danger, energy and passion.
This tells me that this magazine will be
based around this connotations since the
colours mostly used are these and yellow
which could be connotated to happiness.
Also there is black which can connotated to
power, mystery, evil. This tells me that this
genre of magazine is going to quite dark.
This may appeal to readers because they
might like these colours since they stand out
before you actually see the image.
The cover lines mention band names that
link into the genre of the magazine, they are
also in yellow so they standout to the
reader, this can catch the attention of the
reader since just by reading it they can
aspect what the magazine’s content is going
to be about.
Main image-
The mid shot image is of the ‘Oasis’
presented in the headline, they are
dressed in white, the colour which is
mainly used in the masthead and some of
the text. This tells us that it is an
important aspect of the magazine since
the masthead and the clothes match. The
colour white connotates to pure, good,
light and honesty, therefore, tells me that
this image of this artist is a n honest and
good image of this artist. However, this is
an opposite to the facial expressions they
are showing because, the two males
don’t look very friendly also, one isn’t
looking at the camera while the other
one is. This makes me think that these
guys must be dressed up to look nice but,
are not actually nice, which also supports
the genre of this magazine, Rock’n’Roll.
Barcode-
The barcode is placed on the main image.
This shows us that the barcode has a
visible meaning in this cover since,
barcodes are usually not placed on the
main image (below the main image) this
makes it easier for the reader to
purchase this magazine and also shows
that this brand must be a high brand
because not most magazines do this.
House style-
The house style of this magazine is the red usage
which is very common in ‘Q’ magazines and
white. This suggests that the magazine is honest,
passionate, dangerous and also very good.
3. Heading-
The heading contents is located in
the top left corner followed by the
date of the issue. The heading is in
red, which is the same colour for
font used mostly in this page. The
font looks very simple but, very
bold so, it catches the yes of the
reader so they know what page this
is.
Issue number-
By having the issue number at the
top suggests that this is a big
magazine company since it lets the
reader know what time this
magazine is issued and mostly , ‘Q’
always has its issue numbers in
noticeable places so the reader can
check what date it is and can also
look it up online if they wanted to.
Page numbers-
The page numbers are in red where
as the text is in black, this suggests
that the numbers have a significant
role in this page and the red
suggests danger and passion where
as the black suggests power.
The main image-
The image is a long shot of a
man. The image is not in colour
therefore, makes the text stand
out against the light background.
The man is positioned the
camera while facing away from it.
This breaks the usual magazine
convention of direct mode of
address where the person looks
towards the camera. This makes
the magazine seem different and
interesting to the readers.
The layout-
The layout is set very clean and
understandable so it can be
easily read by the readers which
like this genre of magazine.
The colour scheme of this
magazine is the main three ‘Q’
colours, which are Red, black and
white. These colours are very eye
catching and will most likely
catch the attention of young
adults and teenagers that prefer
this type of genre of magazine.
4. Heading-
It is very noticeable since it is in
red and the background is in
white, these colours are mainly
used throughout ‘Q’ magazines
and are very eye-catching for
their target audience and
readers.
Issue number-
The issue number is next to the
heading this shows us that the
magazine wanted to make it
easier for the reader to see what
date it is.
Sub-images-
These images are shown with
page numbers shown with the
images so, it can help the readers
find the pages easily. The images
all look very relaxed and majority
of them doesn’t include
performing except one, this tells
me that unlike other music
magazine, which prefer doing
images of close-ups of artists,
this magazine focuses on the
artist naturally, which may appeal
to the reader.
Sub-heading- ‘Every month’
This section is layed out on
the left this makes the
layout of the magazine more
appealing since it makes it
more simple and readable
for the reader.
The numbers are not bold or
have any bright colours on
them except black, the text
beside them is also black
and bold, the colour
suggests power and
strengths.
The language used in this is
informal, this makes the
reader feel more
comfortable since this is a
Rock’n’roll genre magazine
and they would aspect it to
informally typed. Most of
the text do use direct mode
of address by addressing the
reader as ‘YOU’. This makes
the reader feel the magazine
is directing at them and this
makes the reader want to
engage in this magazine
more.
5. Heading-
The heading isn’t in an
orderly manner, it just
looks like an ordinary text.
I suggest this because the
text usually are few lines
long where as this one,
goes on until more then
half of the page.
This suggests that this
magazine is different and
by the font being in black,
mostly used in this
magazine page, it suggests
power and strength. This
makes the synergy
between the genre and
the presentation of the
magazine, because
Rock’n’Roll connotates to
power and other things.
Quote-
This grabs the attention of
the reader since they
might not want to read
the whole story, instead
they can read this quote
then debate on whether
they want to purchase and
read it or not.
Main image-
This image is a
close-up of the
main attraction of
this double page,
which is the main
artist. The image is
in dark colours
while the artist’s
face is light, this
suggests that the
magazine wants
the reader to focus
more on the artist
then on anything
else, also
supported by the
fact the image
takes up more then
one page, almost
nearly half of the
left page. This
shows its
importance and it
being the main
subject of this
double page.
The colour scheme of this magazine is black, with a hint of red and some colours on the main page.
This tells us that it wants to present power and importance of these double page. It also shows us
that this magazine is related very much to its genre because the most colours used are black, red
and white, which ‘Q’ is very well known for .
